More of my Holiday Journal

Hi everyone. I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. 

I also want to wish a happy first day of Hanukkah to those who celebrate. 

The official snow amount for my town from the Friday into Saturday morning storm was 14.5 inches (about 37 cm). I'm not sure we got quite that much, but we certainly got a lot of snow. And it was so heavy to shovel. Yikes. The good news was our power came back on at about 4:30 in the afternoon.Which meant we were out about 12 hours. We had gone out to grab dinner, since we couldn't use the stove or microwave with the generator, and as we left we saw the power truck coming down the street. That was an exciting sight.

Today I am going to share a few more pages from the little journal I am making for the holidays. I started this journal with Thanksgiving, and I will go all the way through to New Years Day. As I mentioned the other day, I make a page for each day. My "rule" is that the page has to have something to do with the day, but that something doesn't have to be glaringly obvious. Some days it is; some days it is not.

Once again, please excuse the crookedness or poor photos since I have a bit of curl to some pages. Eventually it will get fully flattened.


Above, my page for Dec. 1 that started when I found this old calendar image in a packet of holiday ephemera.

Below is my page for Dec. 5. This is the day I took a trip to King Arthur Flour, which you might have seen in last week's T day post.


December 6th is below,


and here's the double page spread I started this book with for Thanksgiving.


Here's a page for Dec. third.


And for my last view today, I have a page I am linking up to Jo's Snowy Winter challenge at Art Journal Journey. I used up a lot of ephemera pieces on my work table to make this one.


That's it for me.

Have a great start to the new week.
