"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds, or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before.
We develop ourselves and others when we take unorganized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty."
- Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Christmas Presents






This is what I made for Christmas presents this year. They are cake plates, display stands, candy dishes, jewelry holders or whatever you want them to be. I shared them on the Inspired at Home Live Pajama Party in November. My daughter also blogged about them on her Mommy Creations blog.
I love plates! I have hundreds and can't seem to keep myself from picking up more every time I go to the thrift store or antique shop. I also seem to pick up brass candlesticks. So I started putting them together. I have to say I loved the results! So now I have an excuse to buy the plates and the candlesticks, to make gifts for everyone. You can use any plate and any candlestick. I even found a Christmas candlestick with holly and the perfect matching plate. It's fun to see which ones go together.
