Hello Everyone, gosh it's been cold today, has it been the same where you are. A heavy frost and icy roads and our local mountain is plastered in snow, Alistair can't wait to get out on it.
Thank you all for the lovely comments on my last card, I do appreciate you visits as they all take time.
Just a quick post tonight, as I'm all behind with everything. I've got a share tonight that is a bit different for me, I hope you like it;
When I saw this Advent Calender in Hobby Crafts I thought I'd love to decorate one of them. Now you've not to laugh, but it's for Milo and the little drawers will be filled with doggy treats, of course that will be all he's interested in.
I've used various paints including Starlights, and I bought the little star lights hoping that they would light up the scene when dark, unfortunately they are not strong enough, so have positioned the two battery operated tea lights in front of it. Just a bit of fun but I did enjoy doing it.
Right off to give myself a manicure for tomorrow, long day it will be with rehearsing all afternoon then performance in the evening.
Take care and see you soon,

A fabulous advent calender Kate, you'll have to keep an eye on Milo - knowing his reputation he'll probably eat the whole thing!
I hope all goes well tomorrow - have a fabulous time.

Mwah! such a lovely idea, I'm sure Milo will enjoy the treats inside lol! Love how you have decorated it. Enjoy your day and evening tomorrow. We woke up to a layer of snow this morning, some has melted, leaving a little which will no doubt freeze tonight as the temperature is going to be below freezing here brrrrr..... Time to put our winter duvet on the bed I think lol!!

Oh my gosh, a doggie advent calendar filled with treats, I absolutely love it!! What a great idea and I love how it looks with the candles lit in front. Nice!!
Hi Kate,
what a wonderful design to your advent calendar.
I love the wonderful scene you have created.
It's a pity that the cmera never shows how beautiful those Starlught paints are.
I bet this looks even better if everyone could see it the flesh so to speak.
My Granddaughter has been buying these and painting them and decorating them and then selling them on facebook.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
This is gorgeous and I am sure that Milo will love his advent calendar treats. I got my two kitties an advent calendar this year.

Hi Kate, lovely piece. I bought some of those Starlight paints at the NEC, aren't they beautiful? Hugs, Shaz xx
Hi Kate!
It's my first time visiting and I'm so happy I did. I adore your sweet advent calendar, and Milo is going to love it to the very last treat!! What a lovely idea with the starlights. I hope you get some warmer weather soon. I live in a subtropical climate in the southern United States, but we are headed to the mountains for our Thanksgiving holiday and expect to see some chillier temperatures once we reach higher altitudes. It was a pleasure visiting your lovely blog!
Hugs,
Nancy
Beautiful Advent calendar Kate, very creative. hugs.xx.xx {aNNie}
It's a clever idea to make this for Milo, and he will adore all the little Advent treats. Love the shadow box treatment of the center portion, and what a great job you did on making this cute project. Hope all goes well for the concert. TFS & Hugs
Your Granddog is going to love you even more than he does now. What a fun idea and beautiful result. Clever and Creative, Kate.
Hugs
