12 Christmas Ideas

I thought about making another Christmas project for you, but who am I fooling here, I have Christmas shopping to do.  So what's the next best thing?  How about a review of previous Christmas posts?  This is one of the reasons I refer to myself as "The Lazy Martha"!


Let's look at a recap of previous Christmas posts.

1. Here I used French script cones on the table for place cards. You can see the post, here.




2. I love this Christmas artwork that Linsey antiqued, click here for more. 



3. The Plate Addict made these beautiful pillows, and shared them here.




4. Red Hen Home made these adorable trees from magazines, click here.




5. Samantha made Christmas plates using sharpies, click here.



6. Last year I made snowflakes with my daughter; she loved it.





7. This year I displayed a preserved boxwood wreath on my mirror, click here, 



8. Hung stockings by the chimney with care, click here



9. Made some mini grain sack stockings, here,



10. Had fun stamping silver spoons, here



11. Set up a back porch Christmas celebration, here




and finally 

12. I made snow globes, here.



Okay, now I'm out the door to finish my shopping!

They are all great ideas and I am especially inspired by the stockings on the mantel and the boxwood wreath. Good luck with finishing your shopping. I have just a few things left to get, plus groceries for the big meals.

Lordy, just writing this post must have taken you a while! Love all the ideas. How did I miss those cones? Hope you're shopping for my kids too cause I'm too busy decorating and blogging about it to get caught up with everything else. Bad mom, I know. And the countdown continues.....

way behind this year but not letting it worry me- still have lots of presents to find, little kids done- big kids have nothing!

I love seeing some reruns of previous years! I have lots of new blog friends since last year so it's fun when they post some pics of previous years that I didn't see. And if I DID see it before I still love to see it again!

Love the wreath and the stockings! Beautiful as always. Hope you have a great week, Anita!

Such lovely inspiration! And yes...it's okay to not "do" one more thing. Hope you are able to accomplish everything on your list with plenty of time left over to enjoy the season!
