Christmas Crafts

     In my quest to enjoy the Holiday season as much as possible, I decided to delve into some crafty projects.  I like to consider myself a pretty creative person, but I usually just see adorable things and think to myself "Oh I could do that"....and that's the end of it.   This year though, I wanted to change that.  After all, I have no kids to occupy my time right? 

     First, I spotted these adorable Santa hats and I instantly thought..."Hey, I could make those!"  Honestly though, I convinced myself that I didn't need them and put the thought out of my mind.  And then...my sister told me she needed some holiday decorations for her new shelf.  Perfect excuse!! 

Here's the finished product.  Sorry for the quality of the photo...it's from my cell phone. 

And here they are at their new home on my sister's shelf. 

Having even more time on my hands....(okay not really...but I made time....believe it or not even without kids I'm still incredibily busy)  I decided I needed a project for myself. 

I remembered I had spotted this adorable Candy Cane Tree.  I love candy canes and all that they symbolize.   Here's my version of the candy cane tree.

Next up on my list is something edible!   DH and I are heading to WV this weekend for Christmas with the in-laws and I thought this Santa Hat party mix would be the perfect housewarming gift....if it lasts through the car ride!

I've got a few more up my sleeve but I'll save those for another day!

Hope the holidays are going well for you!
