I'm taking most of January off work-wise. I put in some really long hours in November and December and really need the break.
I had planned to spend the weekend finishing up a quilt top I started New Year's Eve but it got put on the back burner and I filled the weekend up with lots of fun stuffs.
Dismantling Christmas was the first thing to do this weekend. So sad to see the tree go.

I have quite the snowman collection. So many that I bring them all out in January after Christmas is put away.

The tall one I got at Michaels. There are little white lights in the holes. I painted the snowman and stamped silver snowflakes all over him. And the snowman nutcrackers; those were a steal a few years ago for $5 each at a local drugstore. I couldn't leave them behind at that price
We did a bit of shopping and I found a new friend for my sewing room.

She wasn't the only Sock Monkey I played with this weekend.

I started(and almost have finished) a fun home decorating project. I'm really excited how it's turning out and can't wait to show you.

And rounded out the weekend with freshly baked cookies. Which I believe I have eaten the most of lol!

great post Rhonda! I love all your snowmen! And I definitely can't wait to see your mystery project! I love the sock monkey fabric...everytime I see it I try and think of an excuse to buy it!
Wow you fit a lot into a little weekend - great blog!
I love you little snowmen! They are so cute! (I'm a fan. . .mine come out for our Winter theme at school--I don't have nearly the collection you do!)
