The first thing I think of when hearing the words Handmade are my Grandmother's incredible mittens.
Lucky for me, I was able to get a box of mittens that she and my Aunt had made. Often I wear the double layer mittens to do chores in. When the weather gets very cold, nothing is better than homemade mittens.

The knit mittens have wool over them. Often I wear mine with those tiny stretchy gloves you can get that are cheap and three for a $2.
This week I had some waiting around the house to bid my time while the winds blew down limbs and whisked anything that was not tied down away...
I cut up Elderberry stems and cut them apart. I made my own Lincoln log cabins for my toys to enjoy.
Homemade log cabins and glittered pinecones for decorations:
And last but not least my handmade button bears. They love to play in the woods and chase Elf on the Shelf.
But today they posed for him on a log.
That's my story...
and I'm stickin'
to it.
