~O, Holy Night~
August 13th, 2018 by Holly McMillen
Look. I know it’s August. But to crafters, we like to start early as Christmas is the biggest holiday for us. We make cards. We make wreaths, We make a dozen other crafty things, then we bake. If we don’t start in August (July for some!), we’d never get done.
With that said, I make fewer and fewer cards each year. I have learned over the years who appreciates the work put into them and doesn’t toss them in the trash with you standing right there! Yes, it happened.
Each year for the past 10+ years, I’ve made a chocolate Christmas card. This is my offering for 2018.

And to make this extra special, it could easily pass as a MALE Christmas card. How about that!?

I shaggied up the sentiment so it looks like it would be found in an old barn.
