Christmas Crafts To Try

Pin It

  It's feeling very Christmasy around here. We got our first real snowfall this weekend & the Christmas music has started in full force. I was working on whipping up a Christmas banner for a friend this weekend. I'm almost done & will post photos & details soon.

  As many of you, I've been pinning lots of wonderful craft ideas for Christmas on Pinterest. Here's some crafty projects I plan to do for this Christmas:

You may remember that I found some vintage spools on my last thrifty outing. 

This is what I plan to do with them.

I've started on these candy canes already. I'm doing mine in blues & greys. 

I quite like the twine & newsprint too. 

I think sheet music would look divine as well.

I have a big bag of pinecones I love to use & have been looking for different ways to incorporate them into my Christmas decor. I have this exact vase & think this is a fun use of spray paint. 

My Christmas colours are blue, white & silver. I think I'll paint them in those colours.

I've been diligently saving toilet paper tubes to use as treat packages for my kid's little school friends. 

I have several different ideas like this pinned. We'll see which one I go with. :)
