My daughter and I did another craft together! I think that is a record for us to do two projects in about 1 weeks time!
My daughter found the idea on Pinterest. If you have never looked at Pinterest, you need to go there. Just click here and you can follow me!
This is a cute, fun, easy craft that you can complete in couple of hours!
It is framed Christmas ornaments!
First of all, you need to start with a frame. This is one that I picked up at the DI and I took the picture and glass out and spray painted it lime green. (This frame was a little bit bigger than I would have liked, but it was the only one they had that would work! The thicker the frame, the better!)
I used this Rust-oleum ultra cover, 2x paint. I love this stuff! It really covers well and I only have to do a couple of coats! This color is Key Lime Green!
After painting the frame gather all your supplies together. We hung each of the ornaments on a ribbon at varying lengths. We then just used a staple gun and stapled the ribbons to the back of the frame.This is the bow that my daughter was experimenting with, but then changed the silver flower to a big candy cane striped ribbon. I told her that I needed a picture of the frame and this is what I got! Just a goof off! (do you love the plastic bags hanging on the stair railing? This is the catch-all area of my house!)
We added a big bow, tulle, curly cues, and beads to the front of the frame.I think that it looks quite festive and I am starting to get the Christmas Spirit! I have most of my decorating done, and it is a good thing, because this week a lot of the parties will start at our house!What are some of your favorite Christmas decorations? Have you had them for a long time and are they priceless, or are you getting/making a lot of new, updated things? I have a couple more projects that I am working on and hopefully I will be able to get them done this week, before the parties! I will share when they get finished.
