DIY Christmas Projects
Filed under: Being Green, DIY, In the Kitchen..., Things That Make Me Happy
I am supposed to be taking down our Christmas tree. Instead here are a few of my Christmas projects:
1. Gift tags from scrap paper

These tags were super easy.
I made the blue ones from the inside of those envelopes that come with bills, I used a rubber stamp on the green one and both the green patterned one and the red pattered one I made from scraps of Martha Stewart craft paper from Wal-Mart. The lace looking tag was made using a Martha Stewart lace punch.
2. Ugly Christmas Ornaments

I really wanted these to be cute but ...
I made these at Dandy Doodles, which is one of those paint your own pottery places. The heart ornament is our “first Christmas as a married couple” ornament. June tried to eat hers.
3. Fun Wrapping Paper
I enjoy wrapping presents. I use too much tape sometimes. I reuse ribbons and bows if they are pretty.

Engineering Plans (old plans from our recycle bin at work)

Maps I found at Dirt Cheap and leftover ribbon from my wedding
4. Christmas Cookies

My niece Cadence loved these!
5. Ben’s Journal
I love having a journal so I thought Ben might like one too.

Sorry this looks yellow.

I added a 2010 calendar.

Don't judge me.

Loved the wrapping paper and gift cards (that you made)! Yes, Cadence loved your holiday sugar cookies; Mr. Riley devoured (sp?) them as well! I had a great time with you & Ben on Christmas! Thanks for coming!
