I’ll be spending this weekend decorating for Christmas. The tree is already up. I’ll be decorating the staircase, putting up my wreaths, including my Elongated Christmas Wreath, hanging stockings, and displaying all of my Christmas Treasures.
I’ll also be making new ornaments! Since much of my crafting is done while the baby is napping, I don’t have lots of time. I compiled this list of fun, fast, and easy Christmas ornaments to inspire me – and hopefully inspire you, too!

Just last week the stork flew by and dropped off my first nephew! I wanted to make him something fun to wear this winter, so I picked up a pack of long-sleeved onesies when I was at the store to whip up a super-simple shimmer snowflake onesie! This onesie would be great for girls as well… but there are no baby girls in the family right now.
The supplies were super simple. A package of Tulip shimmer Sheets, Onesie, Scissors, and some snowflake cutting instructions. I just googled “Snowflake Cutting Instructions” and looked for my favorite.
I started by making my square. Because of the size of my onesie, I didn’t want a huge snowflake, so I folded in the corners to make two squares – I used one to practice, and one as my final snowflake. But you can practice on paper if you prefer.
I folded my square to make a 6-pointed snowflake. Fold in half diagonally, then in half again, then fold into thirds. You’ll have something that looks like the picture below. Then cut off the pointy tops, and you can start creating your snowflake.
Start chopping! Cut out curves, spikes, triangles, or whatever to make your snowflake. To get a pretty lacey snowflake, cut out lots. You want it to look like there is barely any snowflake left!
Once you’ve cut it out, carefully unfold it. Your sheet will stick together a little at the cutting points, so you want to carefully peel apart the layers.
Now it is time to iron it! Place it on the shirt, cover with a piece of paper, and iron it on.
All that is left is to pack it up (with a couple burp cloths, and maybe a 30 minute tag blanket and some 30 minute baby bibs), and send it off to my new nephew!

I wrote this post as part of a paid campaign with (client’s name) and Blueprint Social. The opinions in this post are my own.
Yesterday, at my son’s preschool, I saw these fun little Waffle Cone Cornucopias. The “horn” of the cornucopia is made out of a waffle cone. If you make these, you can stuff yours with whatever you like – Chex mix, nuts, or even leftover Halloween Candy!
I thought this idea was so simple, smart, and easy I just had to share it with all of you. Chances are you already have the supplies at home – waffle cones and treats!
Happy Thanksgiving!

I love the idea of using a giant tic-tac container as a way to keep mini calling cards. This would work great if you used adhesive paper to make your e-mail adhesive-backed for people to stick on their conference agenda, notebook, or in their address book.

Add some personality to your holiday table this year. Some real personality with napkins that say what you’re thinking! Personally, I love the napkin pictured below, but you could use this technique to stencil a reference to your family’s inside joke, or common holiday sayings… anything from “Be Thankful” to “Happy Holidays” to “Pass the Gravy”!
