Perhaps too Early?


Pinterest/Christmas
I know. I am insanely early. 

But I couldn't help sharing these fun Christmas decoration ideas. They are so simple, fun, and will certainly brighten your home this Holiday Season.

Starting from the top:

To achieve the first look:
You may have to go out into the yard and gather some branches. You can choose whatever size you like but the larger the better since you will be hanging ornaments from the limbs.

Once you have gathered enough branches, it's time to spray paint! You can use either gold or silver spray paint depending on your taste. 

(Let the branches dry) 

Once dry, place branches in a large vase and hang a variety of ornaments from the limbs! 

How to make candle centerpiece:

Gather 6 red or maroon colored candles. 
(again you can experiment with the colors to achieve desired look)

Line 3 candles horizontally and 3 behind

Wrap ribbon around all of the candles and secure with a hot glue gun. 

You can also wrap cranberries and branches around the candles for a more festive look.  

To make wine bottles:
Have a glass of wine with a loved one! Once you have finished all of the bottle, save it! 
(Repeat 2 more times)

Clean out wine bottles.

Gather silver or gold spray paint and spray bottles (allow to dry)

Once dry, you can scribe "Peace", "Love", "Joy"  onto the bottles

HappyHour Tip: Don't have steady hands? Go to your local craft store and head for the scrap booking section. They have shelves upon shelves of lettering stickers that you can easily apply to the bottles. 

Happy decorating!
