Christmas Quick and Easy Holiday Decorating Ideas by Connie's Spot©

"Christmas Quick and Easy Holiday Decorating Ideas"
By Connie's Spot©

Here are a couple quick decorating ideas...

If your anything like me, you have all these cute kitchen accessories...

that sit more in the cabinets then anywhere else...is so then

you'll like these ideas...I have a cupcake dome and I

filled it with very simple things...these are the

 glittery pine cones I made a while back...

they look so pretty in this and when the morning

sun hits them they look beautiful!

Here I added a little snow and placed my

Snowman salt & pepper shakers inside!

Very simple and pretty ideas for the kitchen!

 

 I was at Pier 1 and they had these gorgeous

Christmas Ornaments!

They are frosted from the inside and then hand painted...

each comes with a velvety box to store them in...would make a

wonderful Christmas gift!

 Thank you for Supporting Connie's Spot© Sponsors!!

 

Exquisite Ornaments from Faith Harvest Helpers

Exquisite Ornaments from Faith Harvest Helpers

 

This one says Noel

This little pamphlet tells all about the person who made it!

When I was at the Holiday Craft Bazaar last weekend...
I took a stroll around to take a look at some of the other vendors to see
what they were selling...when I got to this one I was so surprised at

               how these exquisite ornaments were made...and then I heard who made
them and how they're helping to feed families I just had to share their story.

The sale of Mayan Bolas supports a vital Cottage Industry and helps Faith Harvest Helpers raise funds for their domestic and global outreach & relief programs. Each bola has the interview of the creator attached to the unique, handmade, colorful, glass beaded ornament. Bolas are sold throughout the year at a variety of Northwest fairs and bazaars, are consigned to various retailers, and can be consigned to organizations for fundraising. For more information on events and consignment please contact Cynthia Rankin via email: cynthia@faithharvesthelpers.org
or by phone (360)259-5586.

The Mayan Bola Cottage Ministry helps support families in Guatemala.
These exquisite works of art are hand-made by Mayans in the Lake Atitlan region.
Families are struggling to live 5000-7000 feet high in the volcanic,
Western Guatemalan Mountains, some in homes made of corn stalks.

Life there is very desperate with few jobs.

 I am not associated with this organization,
I just love how they are truly helping people.
It's great when you can help someone, but it's really
great when you can help someone in a way that allows
them to contribute to their own family and that
feeling of accomplishment.
These ornaments and the people who make
them are truly beautiful.
