DIY Christmas Vases..

So.. 

I have completed one of the ideas

that I was inspired to do after 

reading BHG.. 

So exciting..

In the magazine..

they showed a frosted vase that was

made by spray painting the inside of the vase

I couldn't find the frost spray paint..

but I found this brushed metallic spray.. 

and I was quite pleased actually.. 

The spray was the most expensive part actually.. 

I think that it was eight bucks.. 

but I used a coupon.. 

so it was a bit less.. 

and the vases were from the Dollar Tree.. 

left over from our last party.. 

 Pretty nice I thought.. 

and it really only took about five minutes.. 

and then dry time.. 

So I did three more!

It took a while to figure it out just right.. 

so there were a few runny spots.. 

but you just turn those sides to the back!

And ta-da.. 

here's some of my DIY Christmas Decor..

I got carried away and spray painted some branches too!

Turned out to be a fun little Christmas Branch Tree.. 

Dangling with sparkly ornaments 

from the dollar section of Target.. 

not too shabby!

Happy Crafting!

Holiday Inspirations....

So lately I have been getting inspired by

Better Homes and Gardens Magazine..

I mean come on.. 

who wouldn't.. 

I have a few little DIY's 

on my to-do list 

after going through just half 

of the winter magazine.. 

I got some of the supplies today in fact!

Until those are ready to share, 

here are a few of my favorite things from

their website.. 

These few selections are great

because they would be easy for 

anyone to put together.. 

just my type of DIY.. 

Love it!

Starry Night Centerpiece.. 

A Beautiful Display of a Happy Bell Jar.. 

A Tiered Tray.. 

I have been dying to make my own 

little cake tray.. 

I only have bought half the supplies though.. 

I will get there soon.

Happy Holidays!
