Easy DIY Projects for this Christmas!

Easy DIY Projects for this Christmas!

Dressing up for the Holidays...it's easy to take

ordinary to extraordinaire!

Add beautiful ribbon and some garland...and you have

a beautiful lantern to greet guest at the door...
The flickering candle light is gorgeous!



Be careful if using a real candle, not to make your ribbon to long...you could

use a battery powered candle and then you don't have to worry.

"Glitter Trees"

These Glitter Trees are so pretty and super easy to make...I simply brushed

on Mod Podge, poured the glitter over the glue...shook off the

excess glitter (sprinkle the glitter over something so that you can

pour the excess glitter back inside the container).

I placed my trees on top of my martini glasses...I

had these small ornaments that I wasn't using...so I added them and

added a battery powered tea light to the inside.

As you can see here it gives off a very pretty glow!

The Love & Joy are from Michaels Craft Store...

They were by the little trees and little tree ornaments...

I just hot glued them on to the top of the trees!

Here is all you need to make these trees...they are

truly that simple and I love how they look...they are perfect to

add a little pizzazz to any room in the house!

Christmas Mailbox, Christmas Polar Bear, & Christmas Candle!
By Connie Hughes Designs©

The Christmas Mailbox will be so fun for little one's to check every day...to see if

Santa's been there to leave a little surprise...and there's a fun little

Christmas Polar Bear who's super easy to make...Also I saw a lot of crochet candles online

but none of them that I saw actually light up...but this Christmas Candle does!

 This is a battery powered Flickering Tea Light!

Because this post has several different patterns, I've colored each project.
Christmas Mailbox: Red
Christmas Polar Bear: Blue
Christmas Candle: Green

This whimsical mailbox is easy to make...although it does take some time to make it...but imagine the little one's eyes light up when they see the candy cane flag in the up position...you can really delight the little one's in your life with special treats and letters from the big guy. If making it for a small child to play with, be careful with small parts and maybe leave them off entirely.

Once your mailbox is done...you can decorate it however you like...I glued Christmas lights above and around the front door. First I decided where my Rick Rack was going to be put, then I hot glued my lights in place. After I was done with that I then glued my Rick Rack down. I cut out a long piece of green yarn, I dipped it into the Mod Podge using my fingers to remove the excess. I laid it out on a piece of foil to dry, making sure to give the strand some waves. Once it dries
place a small drop of hot glue to the backs of each light and attach the yarn. Do this all the way across.
