    Lightbulb Coming Soon - 12 Days of Christmas Project Ideas

    Hello,

    After the fourth of July, I will be posting some pattern ideas to prepare for the Christmas holidays.

    For 12 weeks, I will be posting pattern resources in one category area. For example, one week I will post ornament ideas. Another week, I will post ideas for stockings.

    Please let me know your areas of interest if you have any requests, or ideas.

    Each week will count for "one day" of Christmas...

    What a great idea Barb! How about patterns for decorative items other than ornaments? Something that could be used as seasonal gifts? Just a thought!

    Hello,

    I was not going to post ornaments each week. Ornaments one week...another type holiday project like Christmas afghans another week...just looking for ideas of what members would like to see with the Christmas theme.

    I also thought about creating a thread each week based on a gift idea to create for families and friends. If you have any ideas for this regularly posted thread, please let me know! Thanks!

    The Twelve Days of Christmas sounds great- maybe it will help me to think its not 100 Degrees outside. I love the fall and winter and would love to see some scarf and toboggan patterns as well as anything that has to do with deer- deer toys, ornaments, etc. I also would love to see some patterns for very small ornaments & decorations to put on a grape vine wreath for christmas. Someone mentioned food- wouldn't it be cute to have your whole meal crocheted and set on the table instead of the real food when your guests are called in to eat- bet that would get some good conversation going.

    It is funny that I was thinking of some of these today like the deer, wreaths.... Thanks for sharing your ideas!

    Also forgot to let you know that I will be posting scarf patterns here in the next few days...I added them to my list earlier today! :0)

    Wow - isn't Michigan usually on the cooler side? I plan to start back on some projects during out Olympic challenge. I have had my hooks put away for a little bit - I am not really one to crochet during the summer time...maybe in the near future when I don't have 100 other things going on with the kids! LOL!

    Hi Barbara!
    How about Christmas Tree Skirts or special afghans for Christmas? Or maybe some really cute stockings? That's what I'd love to see. Thanks, Betty
