She is incredibly talented!!

Gingerbread man prep board and

Hot coca in glass mugs!!

Assorted gifts for the house, a wreath, a tree card holder

 made from 2 buttons,

A lantern, a ceramic house a bell and 2 pots

I may use the prep board somewhere else and find more

 places for the box of assorted gifts.
