Snowman Ornament Kid Craft

I was looking for something fun to do with Wynn for her own Christmas tree. I had purchased some clear ornaments from Michaels, and decided we could create some snowman ornaments together.

We used some tissue paper, cardstock, glue and the ornaments to put them together.  Wynn filled the ornaments with strips of tissue paper. 

I decided to use tissue paper because it does not make a huge mess when you are filling up the ornament. You could use sugar, salt, beads or just about anything white to fill in the ornament. Using tissue paper also allowed Wynn to fill them up almost 100% on her own, and she enjoyed doing it.

We made a couple for her tree, and she really loves them. Now, we just have to get the tree up sometime soon so she can add them herself. This only took about fifteen minutes to complete with a three year old. It was a lot of fun, and was something we could do while the two little boys cat napped.

Ornament Place Cards

This weekend I hosted a girls night in. It was a blast and we enjoyed spending time together. I wanted to create a little something for their place cards. I got some plastic ornaments from Michaels, white sprinkles, white tags, stickers and some red burlap ribbon to make these place cards.  I'm also sharing this project over at Sophie at Home. It's a great blog. You should check it out.

 

Everyone had a blast and it gave me an excuse to use my wedding china which hardly gets used. Imagine that! This project cost around 13 dollars to make, and everyone had a little gift to take home.  Thank you for stopping by today.

Inexpensive Christmas Decor

I wanted to do a quick and easy holiday project. I had purchased this frame for a few dollars from a local tag sale by Elizabeth & Co.  Then I got some burlap ribbon for a buck, a dollar store wreath and a dollar store ornament that came two for a dollar.  I adhered everything together in a matter of minutes and it was done. The entire project cost approximately $7.

Thanks for stopping by!
