Christmas gingerbread gingerbread house handmade swaps

Felt gingerbread love

‘Tis finally the season to be jolly which means I’ve been snapping up everything gingerbread to show you over the next couple of weeks. My energy levels are disappearing but I have a few swaps to honour before the arrival of Second Baby.

This week I’ve been making a new type of gingerbread house for one swap partner, very simple with a red and white bead hanger and a metal heart on the door.

I’m hoping my crafting mojo will return soon. I’ve been struggling to pull out my sewing basket after Edward has gone to bed yet there are so many seasonal projects whizzing around my head!

    Darn… you have made me hungry now. Love the gingerbread house, all that needs to happen now is for Hansel and Gretel to stop by!

    I think you’re entitled to feel a little bit tired at this stage aren’t you? The gingerbread house is lovely, would make a great banner photograph for your blog

    I’m rapidly losing my crafting mojo too, for my latest owl knitting kit – knitting it over and over to check the pattern and yarn choices is somewhat demoralising – just want the thing finished, because, as you say, lots more ideas flying around my head!
