Branch with Ornaments


I love the look of old and new together. This is a great example of how it can look good. I would probably to this for Halloween too with the branches spray painted black and with mod-podged ornaments.

This is cute. You can use any fabrics for color, style....I like the idea and will try it in my colors.
Here's where the original idea came from.

Here's someone who copied. I like both versions.

Christmas Countdowns

I like this one because it is a fun activity for everyday. I definitely want to make this one!




I love this idea too! It is so cute. I love the rustic, yet fasionalbe look of this. I have the materials and will probably try this one too!

Sweater Stockings

I love what people are doing with sweaters. I want to do some of these for personal stockings for my family.
Here's some.

Here's another.


Here are mine. I love the way they turned out. Especially the white one and blue one.





Framed Hanging Ornaments Mod-Podge Style


This is so cute. I fell in love with paper mache ornaments when I did my Halloween tree this last year. They are easy and fun, but a big mess...but it is worth it.

Here are how mine turned out. I don't like my blue frame. It is going to go a distressed white.


I also put some of the ornaments on my garland with some little bells, trumpets, and presents I made to match. I think it looks pretty good!

Chirstmas is Here!


I love this pinecone garland. It would look beautiful in my mom's house!

Believe Ornaments


This is totally cute and is perfect or the window over my door. I thing I'll do it two sided so that it looks good from the inside and the out.

I also love this. It's made with candle stick holders as well.

Holiday Word Blocks




These should be so easy. Just cut a 2x4 up into different lengths to get the different block sizes. Then mod podge the paper on after you have decorated it as you like (stamping the edges, ripped, trimmes, etc.). Them apply the letter and add embeleshments. I am definately going to do this one soon. I finally have a use for those loose boards I have been hanging onto.
At the site the link takes you to you can see where she got her ideas.
Here's this one:

Snowflakes on the Chandelier

I love the snowflakes on the chandelier. I'll need to remember that. It's a nice touch.

Pepermint Bark

I love this stuff. Here's how to make it. It's a great last minute gift during hte holidays.

Advent Calendars

I'm not too into them, but maybe I will be when my kids get old enough to keep asking, "how many more days til..." Here's some for various holidays. I thought they were cute.
This Halloween one is actually Pottery Barn, but here's a girl who tries to do a look-a-like.


Here's a thanksgiving one. It's not the one in the picture, I just like the picture one better.
