Decided not to give up on handmade christmas gifts. Although I must say, last years Homer Simpson pillowcases were not a hit.
I have chosen to go slow and just work on ornaments for those people who you don't really want to get gifts for, but must because of social obligations. This also provides me with yet another excuse to go to the craft store, my mecca.
It is also providing me a great procrastination switch up...instead of putting of making the ornaments, I am making ornaments in order to put off dealing with the Canadian citizenship papers I have to fill out and turn in on Thursday at the Canadian Consulate in NYC. There are so many tiny details and shit I have to make sure everything is crossed and dotted. blech.
