When you walked in last night at the dinner they had 3D paper snowflakes hanging from the ceiling. I just LOVED them! So today I made some myself. I kind of got carried away with the idea of a BIG snowflake! But they turned out pretty neat. I also spray painted them silver so that they would match all the rest of my Christmas decorations. I also got an idea last night for my table center piece, I'll get started on that here in a few days I'm sure :) Thanks Deb for all the great decorating ideas too! I promise all the credit will go to you :):):)
One of Preston's Christmas gifts last year from his Great Aunt DeeAnnie was a handmade snowman, made by Aunt DeeAnn. The snowman is probably about 10-11" tall & has a hat & scarf that Aunt DeeAnn crocheted. Preston will not leave the hat & scarf on this little snowman. Preston wears them! He has the hat stretched out to where it just about fits him :) The scarf is just his size. He wore the scarf/hat all night tonight. I was beginning to wonder if he was going to part w/it to put his jammies on. I've decided to ask Aunt DeeAnn to make Preston his own crochet hat/scarf. It was so cute watching him wear it tonight I had to take pictures of him for Aunt DeeAnn. :)

Will you show me how to make those way cool snowflakes?!
Preston looks so cute in that hat and scarf!!! I will go get some yarn today and start working on a set for him to match the snowman's.
Enjoyed looking at his pictures and reading about his adventures.
Love, Aunt DeeAnn
OMG! LOVE, LOVE those flakes!
Teach me???
You are sooooo welcome Angie, I am glad you enjoyed yourself and the snowflakes inspired you. I love them painted silver..........I can't take credit for them though, we asked Ellen Gartner's 5th grade class to make them. Didn't they do a great job? I like to make these snowflakes a little smaller too and have several sizes, as snowflakes aren't all the same:) I will have to tell you my plans for next year, I have the neatest idea for a centerpiece. I love the pix of Preston, he makes a cute little snowman himself.
I LOVE your snowflakes!!! They look awesome painted! Good idea!
Thank you so much for teaching me Angie. I had a great visit and the kids had so much fun playing with Preston Lee. THANKS AGAIN!!!
