DIY: Noel Letters

12.15.2013
Here is a fun little craft I did a few weeks ago. Easy as pie! 

All you need to do is buy the letters, get some fun paint colors, buy a wicker wreath from Michaels and wa-la! It is the cutest little christmas touch you can add to your home (mine is on my bookshelf), your desk at work, or give it as a gift to a friend. All in it cost me $9.00!


You can buy the letters here for $2.50/e

You can buy the wreath from here, just search wreath and there are all sorts of colors and sizes. Mine was $1.50. 

*A fun idea for the letters is to pick a fun paper that is textured or printed and modpodge it on! 







DIY: Christmas Boxes

11.13.2013

Want an EASY craft that will add a fun touch of Christmas cheer to your house this season?

I've got just the thing for you! and it only costs around $15!

All you have to do is purchase the wood, pick out some fun paper, and have some basic colors of paint. 













1. Start with your plain block of wood (link at bottom for where you can buy the blocks for cheap). Sand it down so that paper and paint lay smoothly on. 




2. Pick some fun holiday paper. I picked out all sorts of sparkly fun patter papers! 


3. Get some paint that matches the general colors of your paper..since it's christmas you would probably be safe with red, green, gold, and silver. 

4. Trace the outline of the box onto your paper. Make sure you mark which side you traced so that you only paint the back side that will show. 


5. Paint the sides and back. For rach present I painted the sides whatever color corresponded with the paper colors. 





6. Glue the paper on the front and you are golden! 







Here are the links to buy the wood:




Happy crafting!
