It's that time of year when everybody likes to get crafty and create something new for Christmas decor or Christmas gifts. I love doing crafts but just never seem to have the time and not even sure I have much talent. But it is fun. I used to think that making crafts meant spending hours cutting, sewing, gluing, trimming, etc. But now I realize that you can be crafty simply by picking up a few items and putting them together for home decor. That's what I did this weekend.
Hobby Lobby (one of my favorite places to go) had a 50% off sale on most of their Christmas decor. I got these two Santa's and the snowman for under $8.00 total. Not a bad deal if you ask me.
Then when we were at Walmart I bought this plate because I liked it and it was only .98 cents. But I had no idea what to do with it.
When I was showing them to hubby, I sat the figurines on the plate to carry them easier and liked the way it looked.
Then I remembered the plate my daughter had fixed with candles and Christmas picks and stuff so I dug in my old Christmas stuff and found this little bucket from years ago that was smooshed up and hadn't been used in a while.
So I disassembled it and used some of the picks on the new decorations and here is the finished product. I thought it turned out pretty good.
