I've got a super easy and, I think, super cute project up on the Pretty Little Studio BLOG today. If you are looking for a home-made Christmas present or maybe have a spot in your house that needs an extra bit of Christmas decor, this fast and easy project is for you! How easy is it? My 4 year old assistant had a wonderful time helping me make it - 'nuff said!
One of the things I like about this project is that it was made from an old piece of home decor that I got for a steal at Hobby Lobby. It was on the "we're getting ready to throw this away if you don't buy it for this super reduced price clearance aisle" and was much, much cheaper than getting an unfinished wood piece from the craft section.
See? Anyone who knows me knows I love good coffee; however, this wood sign did not work with my decor. So, I had no problem applying two coats of white acrylic paint over everything as a start to my project.
All papers and die cuts used are from the Pretty Little Studio WOODLAND CHRISTMAS COLLECTION and include these pieces:
Merry & Bright Flair;
Woodland Christmas Fir Tree 8x8 Paper;
Woodland Christmas In a Pear Tree 8x8 Paper;
Woodland Christmas Peppermint Bark 8x8 Paper;
Woodland Christmas Pinecone Potpourri 8x8 Paper;
Woodland Christmas Starry Night 8x8 Paper;
Woodland Christmas Twinkling Lights 8x8 Paper;
Prancer Vintage Die Cut; and
Red Birds Vintage Die Cuts.
Here are a couple of close-ups so you can see how my assistant and I "decorated" my tree:
