Crafty Advent Countdown: 11 Days

Here is another craft made by my Grandma — my Mom’s mom.  (Yes, the embroidered felt wall-hanging was made by her, my mom confirmed.)

I love these little snowmen, although they haven’t made it through the years the best.  I have no idea when these were made, but my Grandma passed in 1986 I believe so definitely over 20 years ago.  They are crocheted and instead of stuffing, have styrofoam balls in them.

They are sitting on a mini-Christmas quilt made by I-do-not-know.  My mom ‘won’ it at a Christmas exchange at her quilt guild one year.  The nativity picture behind them was colored by Elena last year.  (LOOK, 2 bonus crafts in this post!)

And of course the picture to the side of them has 9 super-sweet pictures of Elena when she was just a wee 4 months old.  I had SO much fun taking pictures of my non-crawling, running, jumping little girl, and of course had to work a way of showcasing the pictures in my countdown!
