Christmas Craft Challenge Happening in Two Weeks!!



Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles
And warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Come join us in our crafting facebook group to stay up to date and share your creations.

Here is the rules page for our crafting challenge.

This challenge is sponsored by mtnittanycreations.etsy.com

Upcoming events!

Hi everyone,
Sorry, it has been so long since I wrote. Life has been pretty busy, with homeschooling, starting our ETSY shop and just life. How have you been? What kind of crafts have you been up too? Are you ready for the upcoming holiday season?

We have some exciting things happening in our Facebook Crafting group and ETSY shop.

On December 3rd, we will be participating in our first craft show. We will be at Santa's Workshop Craft Show at the Centre Hall Firehouse. Come and say hi and pick up a Christmas gift :).

Our Christmas craft challenge is scheduled to start December 4-10.



We are excited to have Queen Bee Jewels providing the prize.  Come check her out on facebook.

We will be wrapping up this exciting week with Mt Nittany Creations Facebook Christmas Party on
December 10  from 7-9 PM. We would love for you to join us. Great things about an online party are you can show up in your PJ's, snuggle under a blanket and enjoy the fun and prizes as well as have the snacks of your choosing.

Holiday season is fast approaching. Are you in need of a gift for a loved one come check out our shop! Shop handmade this Christmas season. If you would like something slightly different from what is available for sale, please let us know and we will make a piece just for you! Please email us soon custom orders need to be in by December 5.

Winners of the Fall Craft Challenge!

 


Hi, everyone! Thanks to everyone who joined in. I had a great time trying out these creations, I hope you did too. Make sure you check out or our facebook page and join in on other crafting fun.

I finished my version of the pumpkin craft and it did not turn out so well. This is certainly harder then it looks. I have also started work on the mini pallets. These have been a lot of fun. I especially have enjoyed doing these with my husband.

  

How are your projects coming? Have you been working on any other projects this past week? 

 Thank you to Jogi Crafts for providing the prize and for Mt Nittany Creations for sponsoring this event!

Congrats to Kathryn and Denise our winners of the Fall Craft Challenge.

Our fall craft is yarn pumpkins! By Debbie at One Little Project

 

I finished my version of this craft and it did not turn out so well. This is certainly harder then it looks. I have also started work on the mini pallets. These have been a lot of fun. I especially have enjoyed doing these with my husband.

  

How are your projects coming? Have you been working on any other projects this week?. 

 

As a reminder, our Christmas craft is a   Mini pallet sign Christmas Ornaments. Craft and photo from TheCraftandsparrow.com. 
This was one of the crafts I was super excited about this summer and never got to during the summer challenge.

 

Happy Fall crafting! Each craft is worth an entry in the contest and can be posted in our Facebook group anytime between now and October 15 for a chance to win a special prize from Jogi Crafts by Amber.
