Mr. Snowman

 Hi friends!

After walking room to room around the house with one of my latest finishes trying to find a home for him, I finally opted for a little spot tucked into my hutch. 

I found this pattern when I went to buy the Santa version at Acadia Stitchery. I saw the snowman and I just couldn't resist! He's stitched on 32 ct Vintage Country Mocha Lugana using the called-for DMC threads except for the black which I substituted with Black Coffee from Country Cottage Needleworks.

He fits perfectly on my Prim "Short" Finishing Board with just a little black and white gingham fabric and trim and a bow with snowflake button center.

New *Winter Collection* Prim Finishing Boards

Over the past few weeks, I've been working on some basic finishing boards for my winter smalls I stitched during the holidays. I like to make them look old and primitive, so I really worked on "dirtying them up" by experimenting with different paint colors and finishes. It was more fun than I thought it'd be and I ended up enjoying it! I may even do this seasonally with different colors!

The four colors I landed on for the "Winter Collection" were Black, White, Cardinal Red and Winter Blue. They're available as premade finishing boards (with the fabric mats of your choice) in my Etsy shop (https://www.etsy.com/shop/StarryNightsStudioCo), or as custom pieces with or without a fabric mat for my finishing service.
