I love this season - a time for giving, am I right?! So have you had the pleasure of listening to She & Him's new Christmas album "A Very She & Him Christmas"? I certainly hope so! It's so chill. Perfect for late night editing or blogging. Anywho. I couldn't help but notice Zooey's ultra cute bow. I thought: I want that! And since, beautifully enough, Christmas falls on Sunday this year... I thought it would be perfect with my outfit to church! How do you like our ultra-serious, not-supposed-to-be-funny-at-all album cover? Tony says "the things I do for you..." Yes, the things he does. Ha! (And he's feeling sick here) Aww.
I thought about what I'd need... fabric for one. Then I thought the fabric I used to make a table runner would be perfect! But let me say, it's not just any old fabric... it's the fabric Tony and I used for our very first Christmas tree skirt. We didn't have much money so I just bought a few yards and bunched it around the bottom (it never really reached all the way around). We stopped using that when we had extra money to buy an actual tree skirt but I saved the fabric. Well, like I said, now most of it is a table runner that I will cherish. But with some fabric left over I decided to make the Zooey bow. I think it turned out great! SO great in fact that I thought I would offer one to one of you! But since I'm in the Christmassey mood let's make that two of you- and I just might throw in a Christmas treat that santa always brings me each year that I love.
