Easy Snowflake Ideas

Previously posted at Design Dazzle.

Happy Holidays Everyone!  I’m Dru and I blog with my three daughters over at Polka Dot Poplars.  I’m thrilled to be a part of Design Dazzle’s Christmas Wonderful.  I’m beyond impressed by all the ideas shared so far and know I will be using quite of few of them.

I love creating and painting on wood.  One fun thing I like doing is seeing what kinds of things I can make from wood turnings found at your local craft stores like tongue depressor sticks, stars, dowels, etc.  Have you ever put a bunch of popsicle sticks in front of a group of kids?  Their imagination just takes off.

Christmas Picture Collage

Christmas Countdown Day 10….

Ha! I love looking at our old photos we have used in our annual Christmas letter. Where does the time go? I thought it would be fun to frame them and hang them up for Christmas. I want to bring good memories in our home especially around Christmas. 

I grabbed some frames at the thrift store in the sizes I needed.

I took the glass out and painted them red. After cleaning the glass I framed all my photos and put them on the wall in a collage. I love it. I could stand and look at them for hours. They take me back in time to so many good memories.
