When it came down to it, the pressure to make the Christmas Day deadline trumped my desire to blog (and vlog) the complete build of my nutcrackers. While a lot of things I was able to photograph, time constraints really prevented me from doing updates (you'll notice a dearth of posts in December).
But I did manage to complete the nutcrackers in time for Christmas. Well, almost. Christmas morning I was actually still putting a few details on the king and they were still bald. They only got their hair this past week and I still have to complete the king's scepter and the soldier's sword. Time enough for that yet.
Overall, though, I was pleased with how they turned out, though I don't think I want to build another set any time soon.
I love that your blog has nutcrackers and your lovely background image! Good job.
ReplyDeleteHaha! It does seem a bit incongruous, doesn't it.
