Christmas Wreath

I thought it was about time I show you the Christmas wreath I made. I made this back in October and this is the second wreath I made like this because the first one didn’t turn out, mainly because I didn’t have a wreath form. It is an easy wreath to make, but it is time consuming. I used a wreath form, coffee filters, glitter and hot glue.








I got the “Peace” sign at Wal-mart for $1.

Glitter Sticks

I have been working on decorating our sofa table using blues and glitter and I needed something to add height. I wanted to incorporate my antique urn, and then the idea hit me to make “Glitter Sticks” to put in it.

I trekked out to the yard, in the rain, and collected my sticks. I painted glue on them and then added glitter. Simple, but beautiful.

Christmas Centerpieces

I decided to break out the Christmas decorations early this year. I always wait until after Thanksgiving, but I wanted to get it all done so I could enjoy it.

I’ve been playing around with a few different centerpieces using things I had in the house and I really like the way they turned out.

For this one I used a wooden bowl that I had painted with chalkboard paint, some glitter Christmas balls, and some cut up coffee filters.

I really like the texture the coffee filters add.

For this centerpiece I used an old window, some fake snow, and some snowmen figurines.

 

I ended up using both sets of snowmen. I plan on adding something else to this like maybe some trees.

I tried using  some of the vintage ornaments that use to belong to my Grandma, but I was afraid the cats would break them.

I can’t wait to show you the Christmas wreath I made. I am so excited and I hope you love it as much as I do.
