These gifts have been delivered and opened, so now I can publish them on my blog. In the fall, while walking my sweet dog, I collected leaves with the intention of painting them on pieces of pottery as Christmas gifts to our adult children. I chose specific leaves for specific persons. I had a lot of fun creating all of them. I then filled them with nutritious foods for each family. The theme was nature/natural and organic. The pieces were very-well received. Maple leaves in a bowl for Trista. Oak leaves on a platter for Davion and Rikki. And Sycamore leaves on a platter for Josh and Jenaye.

ReplyDeleteThanks Honey! I love you!
ReplyDeleteI used my serving dish last night at our Christmas table and filled it with bread. It was nice to see the pieces of bread go, revealing the pretty leaves. Thank you so much for this great gift! We had a guest over and he commented on what a nice job you did. :)
