Homemade Christmas

This is our first Christmas, and considering we are on a tight budget, I've been scavenging the internet for great homemade ideas. I found more than I have time for and some beyond my level of craftiness. I wanted to share two of my favorites. Of course they are both from the website I shared with you just a few blogs earlier, but there are far more out there.

For those of you who can't justify the prices of ornaments, I highly recommend this one. It's super easy and I'm sure you have all the supplies somewhere in your home. LinkClick here for full instructions.

I also needed to jazz up my wrapping tonight and remembered another easy DIY post I saw. I'm sure you shop at Target...

The last was a more time consuming task, but an enjoyable one. My husband helped quite a bit. We were going for an "Anthropologie" look.


Merry Christmas!
