I decided a month or so ago, that I would make many of the presents I hand out this Christmas . . . as well as the cards I send.

The problem is that I didn't start making these things until recently.

I bet you all knew that there are less than three weeks before Christmas.

I'm pretty good at ignoring obvious things like that.
(Thank you, Stephanie, for the inspiration -- and instructions -- to make the portrait pendants above.)
But, I do my best work under pressure.

It's a good thing.
