Like most of you, I've spent hours on
Pinterest "pinning" projects I would
make one day. The Christmas spirit hit
so I decided to mark a few off the
list over the last few weeks.

Burlap...
could anything be any hotter right now?
I had some burlap and decided to repurpose
some Christmas pillows from years past.
Simple trees with simple adornments.
After seeing Vonna's ornament, I knew
a poinsettia would be perfect.
The little ones were perfect for
simple sentiments.

Corn starch ornaments...
I had made salt dough ornaments years ago
but loved the brightness of the corn
starch ornaments so gave them a try.
I used some of my embossing folders to
make the imprints. Perfect!
Although these are very fragile compared
to the salt dough ornaments, I will
definitely make these again.
My favorite.... my Palmetto Moon & Tree.
These will be the perfect adornment for my gifts.

Christmas tree snow globes....
I bought trees last year after Christmas and
thought these would great tucked in
little spots around the house.
Epsom salts for the snow....
Rosemary greenery....
with the jute twine these
simple little trees are perfect.
Cute....cute....cute!

For once I was happy with all that
I made and can't wait to do
some crafting for winter!
I have been stitching and am off to get
some finishing in tonight. Our Christmas
festivities begin tomorrow so I will
make the most of a quiet night.
As always, thanks for visiting and
happy stitching...
