Today was a productive day. I ordered my new kitchen flooring from Home Depot, in 7-10 days I should be rolling out that project. In the meantime I decided to get a head start on decorating my house for the holidays. I don’t have much to put out this year, but I’m forcing myself to wait until after Christmas to purchase any new decorations. I’ll be able to stretch the money more and have a fabulous decorated home for next year! On the current penny, I’ve made what I have work and the house looks so cozy and adorable right now.
Today’s trip led me to my least favorite store Michael’s which for once had what I needed and was holding a ridiculous sale on holiday accessories. So, the rest of my evening was spent watching Boardwalk Empire and making these delightful decorative additions.
Simple craft, and beautiful results.
I hot glued a bottle brush tree to the lid of a mason jar, poured in some snowflakes and gave a gentle shake. To spice up the rim, I used some beaded garland I picked up during the sale and twisted around the lid.
Aren’t they adorable? If I can manage, I may go back and decorate a few of the trees…
All By Myself...
