Oh Baubles!

2011-12-14T14:59:00.001Z

Now I don't know about you but I don't like a messy Tree. In my world you can have too many Baubles. Last year they just got shoved back in the loft with the tree box. I decided to do something with them this year. I saw a lovely wreath somewhere on the TV and thought "Why not!!" So here it is.......

First I cut out the ring base from card stock then using silicone gel I arranged the Baubles around the ring and then used the large pearls to fill in the gaps. Once dried I then tied the flower to the center of the bottom of the ring and then wrapped light blue ribbon between the baubles and pearls one way then the other, making a hanger at the top center spot of the ring. Finally tying a bow with dark blue ribbon.

I still had quite a few left over. I found the old candle tray under the kitchen sink and some pine cones left over from one last years Christmassy crafty sessions with Aiden and sprayed the Silver. I placed the candle in the center of the tray then arranged the baubles and pine cones with more silicone gel finally tying the bow around the candle.

Allsorts ~ "It takes Two!"

Anything Goes ~ Anything but a Card.

Papercraft Star ~ Bell or Ornament.

Ingredients:

Baubles ~ Argos.

Time to Remember!

2011-11-09T21:23:00.001Z

As Remembrance Sunday approaches under clouds of controversy I wanted to make something to place in my window. Your home is one place where other people can not tell you how to feel or who to give thanks to! Why is there so much objection to a internationally recognized non political and non religious symbol?

I give thanks to every single person who has fought for our country

and a special thank you to those who gave their lives doing so!
