Week 3 Blog Class - Mistletoe Advent Train

Chooo Chooo...
Welcome back to week 3 of our class.
Today we are making all our boxes & gifts & wraps
that will be picked out each day!

Remember...   don't stress.  Just enjoy the process.


We've put the measurements across the video, so it should
all make sense.  If you need more direction for the boxes,
email me and I'll help you out.

Let us know what you think!

Mistletoe Advent Train Blog Class Week 2

If you did part 1 of this class...  you are probably
on pins and needles waiting to do the box cars.
I just drove my engine around all over the house!

Remember if you have questions, make sure you ask and
I'll get you answers as soon as I can.


There is a little bit of this video that is blurry... Just hang in there with
this video until Thursday and I'll replace the blurry part.
