Over the weekend I have been fending off yet another sinus infection. Yuck. But, me being someone who has trouble sitting around doing nothing, I have been having a lot of fun working on personalized gift orders.
A while back I had the fortune to come across a couple of really cool light bulbs that had lived out their purpose. I knew I could use them for something…..Santa Ornaments!
