Quiet Door Decor

I have a few Christmas Door Hangers that are made from wood.  They're very cute & I love hanging them on our doors.  But by the time Christmas comes, I'm glad to take them off because I am annoyed at how much the bang around every time the door is opened or closed.   So when I saw this Turkey Door Hanger to crochet, I wanted to try it.  And guess what?  


SSHHHHHHHHHHHHH...... It's Quiet!!


Since making a few holiday decorations, I decided to try a couple more book marks.

The Cherry book mark was a PAIN.  It looks very festive, though.  It reminds me more of mistletoe than cherries.  The cherries made me swear in my head more times than I can count.  Let's just say it's a one timer unless someone pays me to make them one:)
The Sunflower bookmark was quite easy.  I finished it in about an hour and a half.  I learned a couple new stitches.  So next time I should be able to whip it out in a half hour.  The colors are more pale than I was looking for.  But it just gives it a softer look.   It's one of my favorites!
