My mind has been spinning all week with lots and lots of Christmas related project ideas - enough for 2 or 3 Christmases. We're having a small family cookie party on Sunday, which will be a nice way to relax and catch up. And that's probably enough to keep me busy all weekend, but naturally I have a hard time accepting that fact.
I want to: make candy and package it in glassine bags with handmade labels, make Deb's butterscotch sauce and pour it into pretty jars and give them out to people I like, build up my stock of re-useable gift wrap in the hopes of finally having a paper-less Christmas (post to follow next week), wrap all my gifts in said gift wrap, hand print tea towels with my linocuts, buy stocking stuffers, sew handmade ornaments for everyone I know, cover our windows in paper snowflakes, create some sort of beautiful wreath and re-watch the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy (which I've only seen once, in the theater, and which I purchased for myself last week for this very purpose) while doing all these things.
The list will have to be trimmed, but it's nice to dream.
