Christmas back in Virginia and 29 weeks

Christmas!  We went to my family's house in Virginia, where I got to spend lots of time with friends and family. 

 

Hanging out in DC!

And....the 29 week bump with the Christmas Tree!

 

 

Christmas Wine Corks

Now that everyone has received their Christmas gifts, I can tell you about some of them!  I made some very cute wine corks using Christmas ornaments and plain wine cork stoppers.  They turned out very cute!

Gather your supplies - pliers, liquid nails, an ornament, and a wine cork stopper.

First step - remove the hanger for the ornament.

 Step #2.  Add liquid nails to the cork

 Step 3.  Add ornament to cork and leave to dry.

Step 4:  Wait til they dry

Wrap them up for a cute, handmade gift!



A Christmas Wreath

My neighbor and I made some Christmas wreaths to go in front of the subdivision for Christmas.  All you need is some greenery, some ornaments, and some glittery fun!  Plus glue guns.

First we laid out what we wanted, then hot glued it on. 

Christmas Foyer decor

I had some cute ribbon and ornaments to use in my foyer.  I wanted to add some classics like candy canes and the pine cones, and came up with a cute little entry way design.

The ribbon tied around the glass gave these a great look.

Oops, blurry.  Having the Hershey's kisses were great when company came over, for a little treat.

Not too cluttered with junk around the table; we still had room to throw our keys and mail on the table.

Christmas Decorations: Dining room

Christmas is my favorite.  Here are some images of what I did this past year in my dining room.  I had the help of some adorable glasses courtesy of miss Maria V.
