Sorry about the quality of the pictures in this post, but the pictures are rescued from Google after I lost hundreds of pictures in a “deleting” disaster.
So briefly this is the Advent House I made for my best friends adopted son Jacob for his first Christmas with her.
Rather than try to repeat my original post I will just use the pictures to tell the story and just apologise about not giving details about papers etc.like I usually try to do, which came from the HobbyCraft Christmas 2013 range, but I doubt if they are still available now.
This is gorgeous. So much time and love has gone into it. Great photos too.
ReplyDeletethe great colours and all those fun, happy designs are going to be loved by Jacob......this is so special he will want it out year round......it is just the most perfect gift for his first Christmas with his new family.......Dianne
