On a newsletter from Needlepoint Lane, I saw this adorable house from Associated Talents. It was stitched by Stephanie Chase, who will teach it at the shop. The roof front is trimmed with colored jingle bells.
It’s such a clever idea because the bells come in several sizes. They are super easy to attach because they have big loops on the back. Just sew them securely so they will not move.
I’ve seen lots of gingerbread house canvases with colored rounds on them. I always think of them like Necco wafers or pastel mints — but this idea is fabulous and fancy. It’s so great I had to share it with you!
Thanks. Stehanie.
