Friday’s 5 at 5: My Christmas Wishlist

I always have a hard time with my Christmas list. It is difficult for me to distinguish a difference between what I want and what I need. Maybe there’s not much of a difference. Ha.

No. 1: Letterpress by Lifestyle Crafts. I watched the tutorials, read some reviews and I think this would be the perfect introduction into letterpress for me. It is simple to use and extremely affordable as far as letterpresses go. I just think about all the cute cards and paper stuff I can make with it. My mind is going wild.

No. 2: Necklaces by Lisa Leonard. She is all the rage right now and you can see why. I have tried to win one of her jewelry pieces from every giveaway out there. No luck. One day, I will have to own the Be Still necklace. I’m quite found of the family crest, too.

No. 3: Magic Mouse by Apple. Uh, yeah. My computer is really not that old, 2 to be exact. But the mouse is all ready not working well. It’s mainly the scroll ball and the pointer has a mind of its own. Maybe one too many licks by Elle (she’s 10 months). This takes care of the scroll ball problem and its wireless.

No. 4: Ekby hensvik by Ikea. I have been looking for white wall-mount shelves for our master bedroom. A few of these would do.

No. 5: White photography lighting. Our house doesn’t get much natural lighting inside. One of the few things I don’t like about it. So when I try to take pictures of things inside, it’s impossible to get good lighting without using flash. And I’m not a flash person. Couldn’t find a good picture for this one (ironic).

    1. Your wish list sounds like my wish list. I didn’t know about the letterpress kit, so now I want that too!

    2. Did you ever end up getting the Letterpress? As I work for Oh My Crafts, I have heard some about this though I haven’t asked if people are happy with them. I know some people didn’t like the Epic 6 (which is the little machine here you use). Also, one of our good friends is good friends with one of the Letterpress designers. Here is her blog: http://lauralucille.blogspot.com/ She is BEYOND creative and talented.

      • no, i didn’t end up getting the letterpress. i wish! it would be nice as i’m trying to figure out what to do for nathan’s birthday invitations.
