Tangled Tinsel
We’ve all been there – that point in December where it’s simply chaotic! These should lighten your mood a bit and allow yourself some holiday grace. The pin pillow reminds to not get our tinsel in a tangle - and the berry simply announces that it's 'tinsel time'!
There is some stitching in a silver metallic because it’s TINSEL! Choose a favorite silver that you like to work with (or sub more of the white floss) and try not to get too tangled…
