Christmas Craft Countdown: The Friendly Little Mouse
Today means there are 68 days until Christmas.
Now, don't panic!
To try and help you, we have put together a list of great stuff to help you count down to the big event.
I found this gem on Pinterest...just one problem, the maker is on Etsy and sells the pattern. It doesn't look that complicated and looks like a great way to use scraps! The Altoids tin is lined with felt -- cut with decorative scissors. The pillow and blanket are simple enough -- that takes you down to the mouse and his lil teddy. Simple enough if you sew at all... if not, you may want to buy the pattern for $8.00 HERE
WHY the little mouse?
Miss Sarah's Grandma has been telling her stories about the Friendly Little Mouse for years... and usually, in a very quiet voice, as she lightly rubs the back of her neck. They are BOTH going to get one this year, at Christmas. It is just SUPER cute and a great memory that they share.
Now, I just have to find someone who eats Altoids so I can have the tins, LOL!
Happy Crafting!
