Sam-I-Am was good enough to send me some pictures of the kusudama that I made her for Christmas so that I could show you all what I've been doing with my Sunday afternoons, of late:

Yup, here I am! *grins and waves*

Thanks, I enjoy making the ornaments, they're something I can do with my hands while I'm visiting with people.

Wow, it's beautiful! You made that out of PAPER? Even if I had the skill, I'd never have the patience for that! I bow at your amazing-ness.

*bows*

Aw, you guys are always so adorable together. You should have your own site! (Like Cute Overload, only with you guys. HEE!!!)

It's actually fairly easy once you get the knack of it, it's just sort of time-consuming. But I like having something to do with my hands when I'm just hanging out visiting with family and friends, so I got four of them made in the past few weeks.

Everyone always asks that and I never have a good answer. *laughs* I tend to make a few petals any time I'm sitting down for long without something to occupy my hands, so I don't really have a very good idea of how long these take all together. I did sit down and make half of one straight through once, and that took me a couple of hours, but that was only my second attempt at making one of these and I was still figuring out how best to go about it. I should sit down and just see how long it take me to make a whole one sometime.

That ornament is gorgeous. Do you ever make any Moravian stars?

[kalquessa]

I've never tried to make Moravian stars, but I'd love to learn sometime, they're so pretty.
