Started with a chain about 11 inches long and did half double crochet stitch, when working on the second and future rows I did the stitch in the front loop of the stitch instead of the usual back two loops formed by the double crochet. When it was big enough to fit around my head I stitched it closed and gathered the top made a floppy pompom and folded up the brim. Quick and easy.<br />

Enjoy your day.<br />

I joined the Facebook group Memory dex swap because I found the cards being created wonderful and wanted to learn to make some of my own. There is a current challenge to make a card a day in November for use in December leading up to Christmas. A contest was held to win pre cut pieces of chipboard and paper to create your own box to hold the cards and I won !!! Assembling the box was so easy. So starts my journey of creating Memory Dex cards.<br />
The reindeer and Merry Christmas are cut files from TreasureBox designs.<br />

I used a round plastic bead for the head and a star bead for her halo. I think they turned out cute. So I call this one a pinterest success. you can find the instructions here http://funezcrafts.com/Easy-Angel-Crafts-Wire-Cross-Angel-Ornament.html</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I went into the city with my family day before my birthday to see the Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall and the tree in Rockefeller center. I broke my little toe so had to wear slipper boots because I cannot get my foot into any of my shoes that was not much fun needless to say. The show was wonderful and the tree fabulous even if we did see it during the day. </span><br />

Christmas at our house was fantastic the children and grandchildren were all happy with their gifts. I was very happy with gift certificates for dinners out yeah no cooking and new charms for my Pandora bracelet. I gave everyone a new dvd that I covered using the tutorial from Pinterest on <a href="http://septemberninth.blogspot.com/2011/11/quick-quotes-project-3.html" target="_blank">September Ninth's blog</a> I loved her idea and just had to make these they were so easy to make. I can see me making them again for birthday gifts it just make giving a dvd that much more fun. </span><br />

They really do go together very easy and fun to make. I used the basic directions from the tutorial on <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/boxinabag/" target="_blank">Splitcoast stampers </a>changed the paper sizes to create a wider and shorter bag so it looked more like a purse. I can see all sorts of bags by just changing the size paper you start with. I did not add the bottom edging as I thought the paper was pretty enough. My daughter filled these with goodies for some of her co workers. Have a great day.</span><br />
