I stitched up these mini Christmas designs last month, but had to restitch three of them yesterday because I cut them too small when trying to finish them.
I found the containers at Michael's in their dollar section during October. I knew I could make them into something fun as Christmas gifts.
I used metallic cording and ribbon to embellish the edges of the lid and around the cross stitch design on each container.
I opened one of the containers (in lower right of picture). All of them have a shiny silver finish in the inside.
I plan on filling each container with small candies as part of my Christmas gifts for my friends at our annual get together later in December.
In terms of frolicking, I haven't decided on what to work on next. I have two WIPs in my stash, the cottage cake series by Cottage Country Needleworks and a French design by Anagram Diffusions that I could work on......ah, decisions, decisions!
Happy stitching everyone!!!
