Christmas Decorations '10

It's that time of year again. I DECKED out the apartment this year. New things were made and the addition of a 6 ft. tree helped it seem more decorated than years in the past. Thanks for the tree, Gma! I made just about everything that will be seen in the slideshow. Other things were obviously purchased. My roommates didn't really do anything this year... I guess that left me in charge. I didn't even take photos of the wreath and t.v. set up this year. It's pretty much the same as last year. I like the decorated apartment. We'll see if it does well in the ward Christmas decoration contest. ;)

My First Kusudama

I was going on this thing making new kinds of origami flowers and found this flower. Then I found that if you make 12 of them then you could put them into a kusudama. I thought I would give it a try and this is what came out. I finally got the chance to use my origami paper. The beads are even made out of origami paper because I lack real beads. xD I'm pretty happy how it turned out though. I think I'll be trying other kusudama in the future. ;D

Here's where I found out how to do it: [link]
