Okay, so I might have embellished the truth when I said that I put down all of my other projects. Just a bit. Anyone who knows me, has likely come to realize that I never have only one project going at one time. I always have to be totally overwhelmed by my own doing, my own expectations and ideas. Submersed. When will I realize this and embrace it so I can stop being so frantic?!?
So while I was stretching my tendonitis elbow from the green knitting, I whipped up some birch bark (looking) wrapping paper for the holidays.
The idea came from the play box I made for Ava's birthday. When my friend saw the box, she mentioned wanting some birch bark wrapping paper. I can't have a friend wanting. So I went to my stash and found a roll of left over white craft paper and some basic black acrylic craft paint to make her some.

I am not sure. The result may be more like a zebra print, but I guess it will just be my interpretation of birch bark. This was an easy project, one that left me enough nap time to make a few giant felt mushroom ornaments. Use and application still to be determined. Husband feels they are "too giant" for the Christmas tree?!?! Giant Smyant I say. Maybe I will applique one of these Giants on Husband's pillowcase this afternoon. Hmmm, that is an idea.
That will teach him to mess with me and my giant mushrooms!

Very cute mushroom, Meagan! I'm not very creative but I might consider putting it onto a throw pillow.
