This is Tree Shopping from Mill Hill's most recent Holiday Collection. I used the materials in the kit, but made two changes: 1) I used two strands of floss for the cross stitch and I filled in the empty areas around the white stitches at the top.
It seemed to take a lot longer than usual to stitch and I'm not sure why, except that I actually followed the direction and did the stitching first and beading last; usually I bead as I go. Also, all of the beads were in one bag and I had trouble distinguishing between the black and green and the gray and white at first.
It came with a magnet, but I made a hanger for it instead. I still need to attach the hanger and add the backing, but once that's done it will be added to my drawer of Christmas ornaments to go on the tree this Christmas.
Next Up: July Owl
Goal: A Finish

This is really sweet. The more I see these little Mill Hill kits the more I fall in love with them. Considering how small they are they are really effective. Congrats on your finish. :)
