Merry Christmas....thanks to everyone for all the beautiful ornaments which provided me with unlimited inspiration and which kept me motivated through the entire year. It has been a lot of fun. I managed to make most of what I set out to make. I still have one photo left to post from 2008 but the recipient must first receive it !
