I happen to browse Joss & Main every single day, and in a recent sale, I spied this cute Rustic Christmas Tree Print for $80 and Rouge Trees Canvas Print for $73 and remembered the pre-stretched burlap canvases I saw at my local craft store the last time I was there and thought it would …
Pretty DIY Winter White Floral Wreath -for under $15
Last week this gorgeous Winter wreath from The Purl Bee popped up on my Facebook timeline. Diana posted that she loved it but wouldn’t be shelling out $98 for it… and since I wouldn’t spend that much on a wreath either, I had to click through to check it out. Sure it’s a gorgeous textured …
Hanging Stockings when You Don’t Have a Mantel
I love our fireplace. It’s big and covered from floor to ceiling in gray stone or some sort of irregular slate slabs, but it doesn’t have a mantel. It actually has a small hood with painted flowers on it and it’s original and I kind of love it because it’s so unique. We also have …
DIY Snowflake Tree Topper with Pipe Cleaners
Yes, ANOTHER PIPE CLEANER TREE TOPPER!! I obviously can’t get enough. They’re just too easy and too fabulous! While I do love this one, it’s a bit difficult to photograph and almost looks like it needs another, smaller, snowflake in front of it. But I like it. I used the same technique as my GEO …
DIY Filling Glass Heart Ornaments with Eucalyptus + Strung
Filling clear glass ornaments is nothing new, nor does it actually need a DIY tutorial. However, since they are so pretty, and since I strung them on rope and hung them as garland, I thought I’d share it anyway for a little inspiration. What You’ll Need… Clear glass ornaments. I used glass hearts I …
DIY 3D Gold Christmas Tree Topper or Home Decor Accent
This is the faux tree that Micheal’s sent me to decorate last year, and because it’s too small for our living room now, it gets to make the upstairs hallway merry and bright! And since the upstairs hallway is filled with the furnishings that once belonged in our Game Room/Den in our old house, including …
DIY GEO Christmas Ornaments from Pipe Cleaners
It wasn’t until I made my Spectacular Starburst Tree Topper last year that I discovered the awesome that is pipe cleaners. And not just any pipe cleaners -metallic pipe cleaners. For some reason beyond my comprehension, when I use them in holiday projects, they go from being tacky craft supplies to fun and fabulous Christmas …
My DIY Rustic Christmas Tree {in blues & browns}
In our new neutral living space, with little hints and pops of blue, I couldn’t imagine a tree in any other color palette. Being that I’ve never done a tree in these tones though, I only had a few ornaments that I could use. I grabbed some vintage ornaments in blue and teal, a few …
DIY Faux Flowers Christmas Ornaments for A Floral Tree
I found these rough little faux flowers when I picked up my hydrangeas a few weeks ago and I’m not sure exactly what kind of flower they’re supposed to be {anyone?} but they have a gritty texture and are sort of light navy or cornflower blue in color. I originally planned to use them in …
DIY Christmas Glitter & Pearl Ribbon Decor
My original idea was just to easily string these jumbo pearls through the ribbon, knot either side, and call it a day. The pearl holes, however, weren’t large enough for my glitter ribbon to fit through and I didn’t want to spend all day trying to make the holes larger. So instead I went with …
Filling Clear Glass Christmas Tree Ornaments | the options are endless
A few years ago {well, more like 10 actually} I found these clear ornaments at a craft store and filled them with fake snow and tied them onto the tops of all the gifts I gave that year. Since then, I’ve just filled my own with whatever color scheme I had planned for my tree …
