Presents

I am always looking forward to preparing presents for neighbors and girls (who are just colleagues, not friends). This year I crocheted some mistletoe leaves to decorate the wooden pendants with Christmas motives. I found the instructions in a book that you can see in the picture. Ž said that they look like propellers, not mistletoe leaves. Well…

Usually I make presents for our neighbors but this year I thought of giving each of them a box of dried persimmon and a laurel twig. I have some ideas for the future years written down but I will probably have to start working on them sooner than in the middle of December. What I disliked this year was buying presents for the kids of Ž’s colleagues. I will have to figure out how to make this easier next year. They are all loaded with toys and I think that they don’t need more than they already have.

So, now I am already thinking of a birthday present for my mom. I guess I will be making lace again. :-)
