Christmas Craftiness

Hey Y'all!
I hope you are having a good week so far. I am SOOO ready for Christmas Break--whew!
I just wanted to share a few pictures of some items I made yesterday!
First, I made these cute little paper cones. I think I could become addicted to making these...Then I decided I would made a MERRY CHRISTMAS banner for my classroom. I used 2 inch circles cut using my Cricut. Then I printed out the letters and punched them with a 1 7/16" scalloped edge circle punch. Strung them up with some cute tiny lace trim and wah-lah! There you go!
Finally, I saw somewhere on a blog how to take old candlesticks and old plates to make cute serving pieces. I took some Gorilla Glue and glued these plates to the candle holders. I think they're precious--just precious!

See you tomorrow!
Have a blessed day!

Glad you are still blogging! I don't know if any make up off the top of my head but I will keep my eyes open when I am out and about. Love the cake plates!

I love the paper cones - and they would work nicely to put all kinds of gifts in, too.

I found your blog while hopping from one to another.

Peace.
