Creating in the H&H SHoP today + a GiVEAWAY!

12.6.11- 


  I woke up today happy that I get to work in my craft room today & create some things that clients have ordered. 
{I feel a little bit like Santa's elves- giddy!}

I found these vintage Christmas gift tags in an antique store in Asheville last month.  I smiled when I saw them because they reminded me of my childhood & opening gifts from my parents & grandparents. 
{Does anyone remember opening gifts w/these little tags on them?}



At first I thought of making a garland with them & then my {always thinking up great ideas} husband said, "You should use them to package up H&H stuff." Thanks for the great idea Ty! So tied up with  a bow of red/white bakers twine & a vintage tag to go along with it- all ready to deliver!
-Which do you like better Red or Green Candy stripes?
I think I want one of each around my house ;)- 
Since...... 
I'm working in my shop today how about I just make one more of the NeW H&H Candy Cane Striped frames to giveaway as a THaNK YoU to all of you for making this year so great for my blog- what do you think?  
{I'm been so pleased with the response for these frames & have enjoyed making them & dreaming up great color combos for the future... oh, the possibilities!}


So friends & family, clients, blog readers & followers now is your chance to get your own 
5x7 Candy Cane Striped Frame

    I love both. If I win surprise me!!! Every year I go and get my kids pic taken at the mall with Santa. They are always the funniest pic. One of the kids is always crying, one is always pulling a funny face. The best was last year when Santa did cross eyes for the pic! We love to get them out ever year and see how much everyone has changed.
    p.s Love the new Christmas music<3

    Yay so happy to enter...I love them both but would love the green! On Saturday my sister attempted to take pictures of Lottie and the dogs..Lottie was screaming and one dog was looking with his big bow and the other (dumb) dog was being herself so I would put that funny picture in there haha I want to come to the sale.

    Oh my goodness, I would love to have one of these! They are both SO fun and unique...but I'd say (if I were super lucky) I would love the green candy stripe frame. It would probably go in my front entryway by my hall tree with a silouette picture of my baby boy jack.

    Thanks!!

    I love them both it is so hard to decide, you know I stink at making up my mind. I am thinking the red one. Each year we take a photo of the kids in their christmas p.j's I need a new frame to put last years in. Thanks for doing a fun giveaway.

  28. Rebecca Leigh HallDecember 7, 2011 at 9:38 AM

    I love the red. Probably the picture I have from last year with the kids or with Grandma from Christmas Eve.

    If I thought it would help me I would say a picture of my favorite sister Melissa, but I know that you just pull them randomly.

    So excited to watch White Christmas with AJQ on Friday night. :)

    There are so many to choose from...maybe an old "high school aged "GROUP FRIEND" picture. ( I came across those pictures the other day. It was great. I really would probably put my kids picture in there. They actually sat on Santa's lap this year and didn't cry....I have yet sat on his lap yet though, and probaly never will. Oh and I like the red striped one.
