A little red fox

A little red fox is my favorite image this December.

I've already went through Pinterest to see the beautiful fox photographs, bought a sleeping fox figurine at an antique shop, cross stitched a cute fox embroidery, and I am stamping my holiday gift tags with a little fox wearing a scarf image. Foxes are everywhere for me this Holiday season!

I mentioned this on our Etsy forum and one very talented artist sent me her fox painting to add to my collection.

What a wonderful surprise! Thank you, Elina from sublimecolors! I am framing it right now and it will be a part of our holiday decor this year.

 

Wait until you see the other images from her shop. The paintings are so beautiful and so colorful. There are stories behind each and all of them! Her images were also put on pillow cases and they are so pretty. I just love Elina's art.

The holidays are almost here and we are very busy with our custom orders this year. We are so grateful to our customers for letting us be a part of their gift giving. Please enjoy our product!   

Best wishes from socksandmittens this holiday season.

Gift wrapping ideas

These vintage colorful tin jars are so sweet. They are great to store some sewing supplies in and they will work wonderful to present your home baked treats during winter Holidays.

 Home made sweets are a very thoughtful gift by itself, but it is even sweeter when wrapped nicely.

You can also use other vintage containers like clear glass jars topped with a pretty handmade cover and hand written or printed label.

A clean cigar box can be washed and altered with acrylic paint and sealer for a personal look. Let your imagination be your guide.

I am always in the mood for Christmas so I will start my preparations early this year. I will be happy to share with you some ideas later.
