Felt Reindeer and Christmas Pudding.

Hi, Today I have been making my Christmas pudding and mincemeat. Good old Delia Smith, I love her recipes. They work so well and taste fantastic. I started making my mincemeat yesterday and left the mixture over night for the flavours to develop and will put it into kilner jars later today. The Christmas pudding has been made and now I will leave over night and steam tomorrow. My kitchen smells gorgeous and will smell even better tomorrow when the pudding is steamed. My other little project, since the last time I wrote, is now finished. I have made a herd of felt reindeer. I subscribe to the craft seller magazine and one of these little fella's came as a free gift to make and sell. I made him and thought he was so cute, I made a herd. The photo shows just four of them, I have more downstairs! I added the sleigh bells so that they make a lovely christmassy sound as well. That's all for now, back to bottling my mincemeat.

  1. I absolutely love your herd of reindeer! The little bells and snowman ribbon are adorable! Now you just need santa and his sleigh to complete the collection ^^. I also love the use of a button for the nose! Soo cute! I hope you're doing well and everything at home continues to improve.

    Love, Cat
