Greetings! The holiday weekend is over! I will be notifying blog giveaway winners shortly, yay for the folks who entered! I got so caught up in making key tags this weekend, I even made a new one for me. Yup, I gotta cool key tag.
I made a new banner tonight, I kind of like it. IF I were to put up my Christmas tree and and all the accompaniments, it would be quite Victorian looking, with beads, glass ornaments, all in solid pastels with a bit of burgundy and silver mixed in. All are round glass ornaments, except for a few that have been given to me over the years that fit the Victorian mold.
WHY will I not have a tree for the sixth year in a row? KITTIES. Six years ago, Max was a kitten, and well, he was an expert climber, having been born in the attic and all. Once he hit about 15 pounds, his climbing days came to an end (he's 20 pounds now). Just when I thought maybe I could have a tree again, along came Cleo.
Cleo fancies herself a cross between a ninja and the cool guys in Mission Impossible. She can scale a chair, bench, sofa, window screen, etc, in maximum speed. She actually can climb sideways around my old, nubby bench (I don't encourage this behavior).
Given that I have all tile floors, I don't think a tree is a good idea. So, I have to enjoy my shop banner instead!
Have a great week, and as I come upon cool crafty ideas for the season, I'll try to post them!

My cats name is Cleo too!
He is a short haired tabby . he doesn't climb my mini tree...i guess cause he is old and knows better :)
You could always get a baby gate...that's what we used for both our cats and our Rottie...yes our Rottie...she thought she was a cat too until she got to be 100 lbs. She still thinks she is a lap cat! LOL
