Can you believe it will be December by the end of the week? So many things to do, but I also have to make time for relaxation. And for me, this means a bit of crafting! With the help of Pinterest I have been making a list of some projects I would love to get done!
This is a very cute advent calendar. I could use red, white and green mismatched socks, or I could break out my knitting needles… and maybe have an advent calendar by next year!

I have these little kraft brown paper cones that I have never done anything with. They could be made into festive little trees, with ribbon or maybe little pieces of paper like this:

I seem to have passed down my crafty gene to the kids. There is nothing they love more than to get their hands, and sometimes feet, all sticky with paint! How cute are these reindeer?

I adore this holiday wreath! It’s fun and brightly colored. It doesn’t look too hard to make too!

These would make lovely little ornaments and you can make them in the color theme of your tree!

I love the little Reindeer Feet and the Santa Hat Brownies! I have a batches of home made vanilla extract and vanilla sugar that will “mature” by mid-December. I am on the lookout for some cute ideas for labels and to decorate bottles and jars. Te jars for the sugar will be those small canning jars, so I will probably fond some good ideas.

Oh my Gosh…I love every project on here! You make me want to break out all my crafting supplies and get going 🙂

I love the pretzels with the cnady I make the cookies with the kisses in them that turn out cute but this is pretty neat. So glad you shared

That advent calendar is the cutest thing! I like the idea of collecting a new sock each year too.
amber whitehead says
the advent countdown is my favorite but they are all really cute ideas.

I like the felt pinecones ( I like any pinecones ) and with your color scheme I could easily see these being out well past the holidays!

I love those cute pine cones and those santa hats…adorable! We’re making some Christmas goodies this weekend and I think I’ll have to try a few of those ideas.

I plan to make the brownies with the boys. May attempt the trees but not sure the boys would be patient enough though. The reindeer feet look like they would be fun too1
L says
I get teased for saving bits of wrapping paper from each year but I think they would be nice used for your paper cone Christmas tree idea! [ I save the ribbons too 😉 ]
L says
Chocolate and pretzel was never one of my favorite combinations but my brother loves it. His girls are four so I think I’ll try your snack idea with them for a surprise!
