~the best of the best Christmas crafts~

Hello hello!!

It's Wednesday a.l.r.e.a.d.y.....

crazy how the time is speeding by!

I have pinned & pinned & pinned

a bizillion Christmas craft ideas...

I'm hoping to have time  s  o  o  n   to

play & create....

here's a few that made the A list....

cute angel wings....

wouldn't these be sweet hanging on the tree?

I couldn't find a template for the wings....

but I think you could almost trace gently over

your computer screen, no?

probably a big no-no for sure....

otherwise maybe free hand it?

sticking with the book pages, newsprint theme

how about this darling little birdie ornament??

I love the little doily & button...

so cute!

here's a similar bird template you can

print & trace....

you can also go here to get it:

what I really really reeeaaallllyyy

want to make are these little bird ornaments....

this is from Lulu's tree

at Dusty Lu's blog

they are just precious ~ but I'm thinking they

would be quite time consuming & I need

a lot. of. them....

but who knows?  maybe the urge will

strike & I'll give it a whirl....:)

so what else is super cute, you ask??

I love this wax paper garland!!

so easy & looks dreamy on a tree

don't ya think?!

and how about wax paper garland

mixed with little paper birds??

ok...actually think that is button garland (down below)

but either way...cute!

ya got a lot of buttons in a jar somewhere?

I know you do....:)

this is the sweetest little button star....

I have no clue how they made this one, but

I'm thinking....cut a star out of super

sturdy cardboard....spray paint cream

if you like...and hot glue the buttons on!?

wouldn't this make a nice gift as well?

love all the different vintage buttons...

are you still with me??

are you bored yet??

ok then ~ just checking....:)

who has made these clay tags?

definitely want to try...

and can't forget about my cones....

so easy & darling...

AND cute to hang

a.n.y.w.h.e.r.e.

ok I lied...now just a couple more!

got little ones??

I thought these were too cute!

and lastly cute little candy cane hearts.....

wanna make these too...

my goodness....too much to look at & make huh?

to Drivers Ed...yikes...yep she's got

her permit now & is practicing
