My desk is completely empty today, so thought I'd show you what I've been working on
Well this year I decided my reindeer would be more elegant (and in one piece lol!!) So I bought an MDF decoration from Inky Doodles - which starts life like this....
And this is the finished version....
Tried taking photos in different light to show the twinkly embossing in silver and blue
Twinkles do not play well with cameras! Trust me, the embossing is super twinkly and festive!
My masterpiece is currently feeling very lonely, as the rest of the decorations are still in hibernation. Will probably be a couple of weeks before they see the light. In the meantime, my reindeer make me smile :-)
Linking this to Woyww where you can travel the world one desk at a time. Apologies to anyone who visited me last woyww as I did not make it round everyone - will do better this week, but it will be a few days!
Thanks for stopping by
Debs

Great mdf reindeer Deb's, you've done a great job decorating them. I believe in the magic of Christmas . Happy woyww Jill #23
ReplyDeleteI had a laugh out loud moment when I read about you "roadkill" - so funny! You're right, your reindeer look much more elegant, though I'm quite sure your roadkill tasted better! Inky Doodle, seriously? They stole my name! Although I'm pretty sure they existed before I came along. Darn! It's so difficult to come up with a unique name. Oh well, I can't change it now! zsuzsa @ InkyDinkyDoodle #41

ReplyDeleteBig improvement on the roadkill reindeer! Love your reindeer masterpiece. I'm sure it will get along well with all the other decorations when they arrive! Thanks for sharing! Lindart #59
ReplyDeleteOh well done Deb, it's lovely and I can tell how twinkly it is..there's no good light for photos at the moment is there! I think you should have another crack at the cookies though...try a different recipe, they can't all be so brittle as to cause road kill!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reindeer smile LOL. 'Road kill' cookies, I will be laughing at that all morning. Gorgeous sign work. Keep smiling and creating
ReplyDeleteHi Debs,
ReplyDeleteVery cool Christmas decoration. The road kill cookies made me laugh, as sad as they looked. I try to avoid cookie cutters at all cost!
I've had my Thanksgiving meal so it was a perfect time to visit desks - either that or take a nap!!
Happy belated WOYWW

I definitely giggled about the poor reindeer road kill cookies... been there, done that! However, that laser cut sign turned out beautifully!

Sorry I'm so late... speed is not one of the things I'm known for, :D
Gorgeous! I think you have done an exceptionbal job creating this Fsestive Reindeer masterpiece.
ReplyDeleteI am expecially enjoying it as for the first time ever...we are not Xmas decorating! Usually we do the front garden, the porch, the back door, the tree and much ,much more...
With the move pending in Jan, Al does not want me to do the extra work of decorating. We go to my daughters this year for supper and will attend friends parties. No parties or pretty baubles here this year!
I will live vicariously through all my friends posts about their lovely houses...so i am counting on you for even more Xmas finery posts...Promise?
I spy at least one other reindeer to keep these company until your others come out of hibernation!! On your windowsill!
ReplyDeleteThis decoration looks beautiful Honeybun! You realise we ALL want one now! You got until 31 January!!
Hugs
