2003
The photographer thought we were a couple, so we went with it. It's what I get for hanging with dudes all the time.

and here we made birdseed ornaments:
freeze for a few hours. thaw & they'll pop right out. Then go hang them in a tree. Outside. For the birds. Or squirrels.
taaaaa daaaa (still thawing. haven't removed from the metal cookie cutter yet)
thanks to this chic for getting us through:

salt dough ornaments. Years ago, my Uncle Jay (my mother's beloved brother) made salt dough ornaments. Plain Janes, no paint, no color, just some fancy glitter and shellac. They are my mother's most coveted ornaments... those and her mother's bulbs. Soooo this year, I decided to use my grandmother's cookie cutters and Uncle Jay's knack for simplicity and voila. Salt dough ornaments. They sat on the table in this plain state for a while, until we could balance our schedules to apply paint. A household convo one night: my nephew says to my mom, "Mommom. These cookie are hard and I think you messed something up, cuz they taste like salt!" Dumbass ate an ornament!
All painted ! I think we ended up with 37 or 42 ornaments & 12 BIG santas
