Favorite Christmas ideas from Bargain Hoot:: Part 1

December 3, 2012

 

Favorite Christmas crafts

 

I decided to take a trip down memory lane and share some

Christmas craft projects from over the past few years.

!st on the list is: Birch bark printable paper.

Taking a pic of a tree trunk doesn’t make sense in warm weather

let alone…. freezing cold temps.

When you’re a blogger sometimes you do crazy stuff.

Especially…. when you want something and you can’t find it online.

The best part of making this paper was finding all fun ways to use it.

If you’d like to print your own birch paper you can

go to my old post right HERE.

Candles wrapped with birch….birch bark candles

I can’t leave out one of the most popular posts you guys visit.

it’s this funny little birdseed ornament recipe.

They are super fun to make in all shapes and sizes and our birds actually eat them.

PS. Brides love to give them as favors for their “Woodland themed Weddings”

Repurposing sweaters is so much fun…especially at Christmas.. Check out this pillow fashioned from a sweater and this neck warmer

and mittens. Make some room in your closet and upcycle an old sweater, you’ll be so glad you did.
