Pretty Paper Snowflakes

I am really liking paper snowflakes this year! I've made a ton and have hung them up all over the house!

These lil ones are on the shelf above our bed. Which also holds one of my most cherished Christmas things. Can you see the toy box with the rocking horse on it? I've had it since I was a litle kid & whithout it, well, it just isn't Christmas. It's a musical box and it's so sweet to listen to! *sigh*

Don't the snowflakes cast such a pretty shadow?!

Here are a few more of my snowflakes hanging out with Heff the Elf.

Aren't these orange paper snowflakes amazing!! howaboutorange features a quick cutting guide for the flowery snowflake on the right!

I think it looks so magical to hang up paper snowflakes on windows! Especially, here when we don't ever have a white christmas (except that is snowed flurries all day today!!! nothing stuck though :{ )

They are super easy to make too!! I used this diagram for getting started!

I think I may be starting a Christmas tradition involving paper snowflakes! How cute would they be on a tree?!

Do you ever make paper snowflakes during Christmas?

Christmas Lovelies!

I have finally made a yarn wreath! I've had this styrofoam mold for over a YEAR! And the other night while Robin watched the Football game I decided it was time to work this baby up! I am so happy with the way it turned out! I didn't have a lot of supplies to work with, but I am so pleased! I used left over ornaments from our little baby tree we bought and I made the yarn ball and I crocheted a sparkly white snowflake (btw, I am obsessed with the snowflakes too! I am so glad a few of you love them!!)

I've ALWAYS wanted a white tree!! When I was in highschool I bought a SILVER 2 ft table top tree and I decorated it with hot pink, teal and purple! It was so sweet, but after Robin and I got married I threw it away. He HATED it so much, so I let it go.

I got this tree for $7.50 (YAY!) the other day at Rose's (a cheaper version of Wal-Mart). I got some decorations from Big Lots and Wal Mart and made quick work of decorating it! I think next year I will make TONS of ornaments to go on it, but this year I was a little too busy to make all the ornaments! I have some that I actually need to put up!

We also have another tree in the house. Our big, lovely, artificial tree. It's in the living room and it's decorated in Red, Gold and Black. I will share those with you later!

What yo you guys think?! What crafty bits have you added into your homes lately? Share your stuff too, I wanna seeee!!
