Gift Boxes... and some sewing!

So the last few days I've done very little crafting for me.. Got caught up with my babies and Christian Grey & Anastasia Steele... Yup, I like to read... and I can't put a book down once its started... even if its the second time reading it LOL I should know better than to pick it up even for a few minutes!!
But now that those are finished again I need to get the rest of Christmas ready!
Wanna see what I have completed the last few days?

My sis actually pinned this post on pinterest and I loved it so gave it a try for a couple quick little gifts for coworkers... Each box took alittle over an hour to finish.. a score in my book! And they are adorable!! Imagine if I took more time embellishing? I like the simple look for these gifts.. So shout out to"From my craft room" for this tutorial!!




Cute ey? I filled them with Chocolate, Treats for thier children, Treats for thier dogs, Tic Tacs and Home made beeswaz lip balm. I hope they like them!!

I am also entering one of these boxes into Fantabulous Cricut Challenge this week! Wish me luck!

Then I finished up a little throw quilt I made with scraps left over from a tree skirt I made back in October with a pattern from Nite Owl Quilting. The Grinch is hubbys favorite Christmas character and the girls seem thrilled to have a little kid in the christmas decor! 



And that's what I have been working on this week... What about you??

Now off to get started on those pjs!! Seriously!! 1 week to go and I'm just getting started!! And i have all the wrapping left!! Damn you Fifty Shades!!! ;)
