Getting Ready For My Christmas Boutique

I haven't had a Christmas Boutique for a couple of years.  I was to the point where I couldn't paint one more santa.  But after a much needed break and several people asking if I'm having it this year I'm going for it.

Here's some of what I'm making
 
Pot Holder Repurposed From Wool Sweaters
 

Little Pouches Repurposed From Wool Sweaters

Gift Card Holders From Felt and Wool Sweaters

Crayon Rolls
I haven't had to buy supplies yet other than the wool sweaters (I got them at a church sale for a buck a bag).  I use to make cigar box purses and have a lot of fabric, ribbon and embellishments on hand.
I was at Jo Ann's yesterday just browsing and ran across buttons on clearance.  Buttons are like beads to me...I can never have enough.  A lot them were 10 and 25 cents.  Yippee!
