Tis the Season (part 3)

 Last Christmas craft!

This is the original pin...

Needed:
-2 boxes of ornaments 
-1 box of smaller oranments
-styrofoam wreath
-hot glue gun
-ribbon (optional)

 Those are the ornaments I used. I used the smaller silver ones to fill in some haps :)


All you do is take your styrofoam wreath and glue the ornaments on it 

 This is the wreath halfway covered

This is the wreath covered with only one box of ornaments. I used another box to add fullness to the wreath 


You can tie a ribbon around it if you would like. then you're done :)

Tis the Season (part 2)

I saw this pin and i couldn't resist on making these adorable snowmen!

Here is the original pin...

Needed: 
-Hershey's chocolate bars
-White cardstock
-Tape
-Paint
-Fabric

First you take the chocolate bar and fold the white card stock over it and tape it


After that I went ahead and cut the fabric. No particular size, just enough to wrap around the chocolate and tie and knot.

Time to paint the faces :)
I used a black paint pen to draw the eyes and i used the end of a paint brush to dot the mouth and buttons. The nose was just an orange triangle.

After the paint dries, tie on the fabric and knot it to make a cute scarf



Now you have yourself some cute snowmen :)





Tis the Season! (part 1)

Tis the season for a simple project!


This is the original pin....
Cute and easy "mint" mugs :)


First you'll need to find different kinds of mint sweets 
 Next I took green coffee mugs and put the treats in them
(green to go along with the mint theme)
 I took the tag from the original post and re did a couple parts to fit what i wanted. I made these for some of the youth leaders at my church.
Quick, easy and simple :)
