I kind of thought that #artadventcalendar ended on the 25th. Oops, I missed some #photography sharing opportunities. Let's amend that, shall we?

I was so pleased when the original Beech Walk sold just before Christmas as a surprise gift. I had it down for my #ArtAdventCalendar but didn’t use it in case I gave away the secret! I still have prints available #art

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 25: my husband felted the first cabled sweater I knit so I turned it into these Christmas decorations using glass seed beads, vintage beads, bracelet pieces, and a vintage button.

Whatever you're doing today, even if it's just another Wednesday for you, I hope it’s a good one and that you don't have anything accidentally run through the wash, but if you do, all's not lost.

For the last official post of #ArtAdventCalendar here is a portrait of my studio assistant and printers devil Moxie when she was a kitten. This has been a really fun way to start actively posting on this platform and I will definitely be continuing to share art here. Merry Christmas, Nadolig Llawen!
