Christmas ornaments that I purchased a couple years ago on sale from Bed Bath and Beyond, and this!
It's a cone! I purchased two cones in 2008 to make Christmas decorations. With one cone my dad, nephew Camden (who was 3 at the time) and I made this:
It's a peppermint tree! It was a fun way to spend quality time on the holiday. The other cone went unused until now. So the ornaments, cone and this nifty little sewing kit:
along with a bit of ingenuity, created this lovely semi creepy headless Santa tree thing!
Tada! instant centerpiece! (I'm sure you would have thought it was much cuter if I didn't call it a creepy headless Santa thing) But isn't it great? What's better is that I ran out of ornaments...see below...
and had to figure out what to put on top. Enter Santa gift card holder from a year ago...I love clever ideas!
Ahh the joys of the holidays.
