Love the Christmas decorations. I took a little
"Christmas Field Trip" to my favorite places:
Michaels, Anthro, Dollar Store, in that order.
tons of people, and of course lots of inspirations.
Anthropology is into wrapping papers, twine, and
gorgeous paper, but I took pictures of some of my
favorite vignettes. Pictures below.
At the Dollar Store I got some great tissue paper, kraft paper and I'm going back because they have those sweet "Christmas Village houses" so cute,
and you know how expensive they are, but here there are only a dollar and they even have the lights, snow blankets, and accesories, like the little trees, I have some ideas, I'm going to paint them white, and add some white glitter, and more
LOL, also they just got today more of the large ornaments, I mean the super large, like the ones at the Christmas Tree shop, (next shopping trip)
of course, but I prefer the $ store, don't you? As usual, I was talking to some girls about the SUPEr
big ORNAMENTS, WE SHARED SOME IDEAS:
1, use fishing line and hang them from the ceiling.
2, Hang them in front of the big window at different heights.
3. Fill a large bowl with greens and the SUPER ornaments, it makes a great centerpiece.
Great ideas, but if you have a $ store where you live, RUN and get the little village houses, they are going like hot cakes everyone is buying them.
Love the glass blocks, just white lights, some greens and a great bow, from Lorri Heiling's blog.
Some easy cute gifts: chalk labels, so sweet,
Make a paper back book tree:
