Snow Much Fun!

This looks like a fun activity waiting to happen! The ingredients for the "paint" are obvious and probably everyone else has done this ... except me! See the link for instructions.


Tree-mendous!

Love those handmade ornaments ... especially if they won't break! This is not only easy .. but in my humble opinion ... it is beautiful. A great way to use scraps of ribbon, but if you don't have ribbon, use scraps of fabric. You can even "rip" the fabric if you would like a little more "rustic" look. To "rip", just make a snip in the side of the fabric but past the selvedge (if there is one - the selvedge is the tightly woven part at the edge). Then let it rip! Cut some lengths, but you really don't have to be too precise on each strip, because once you have tied them on the twig, you can trim them as long as you want.  Perfect for kids!
