Christmas Decorations

Jar of cookies makes a great gift for someone who has a sweet tooth!  Here I just decoupaged some scrapbook paper on the lid to dress it up a bit.  To do this just trace the lid on the scrapbook paper, cut the paper an extra 1/4" to 1/2" depending on the size of the edge of the lid.  then cut slits along the edge up to where you traced the lid so that they will fold over the sides of the lid when you decoupage it down.
Winter coffee table centerpiece.  I made snow globes by gluing small trees and pine cones onto the lids of jars, filled the jars with fake snow and glitter and then screwed them on.  The taller one is glued onto a candle holder I found at the thrift store.  The deer is a toy from Hobby Lobby that I spray painted gold.
A garland made for my kitchen using cut up christmas cards from last year and spray painted some snowflakes I had from working in a retail store.
Celebrating Chanukah! 
Delicious vegan cookies I made for some coworkers!  I adapted this to make it Gluten Free but they weren't as pretty but still delicious.  Here is a link to the recipe . . . they are Mexican Chocolate Snicker Doodles:

Just some homemade christmas cards made from paper and Washi tape.
Kind of fun!
