Craft Night

Who needs Crate and Barrel when you've got Michael's. We read the December issue of Martha Stewart Living and then randomly wandered the aisles at the craft store, filling our cart which various assundries of glitter paint and craft glue. After an hour, it looked like perhaps we got a bit overzealous. Then Saturday night we stayed in and had craft night. Starting on the left, I covered styrofoam cones in glue, then glitter and beads, and topped each off with a cinnamon scented round red ball that came in a bag of pinecones. (Not a cheap decoration, but a bit of savings from the Crate and Barrel ones.) Next, DG used a snowflake stencil and glitter glue to create a candle holder. (It's almost done.) Finally, we found this hurricane vase at ARC for $5.99, add some red and silver balls which were 20% off at Target and you have yourself a centerpiece. We have other stuff in the works, but too many xmas gifts to show.
