Snowflake Wreath

I was bored this evening so I decided to make a wreath for my sister for Christmas when I was visiting her the other day she had this ugly poinsettia swag thing on her door I was like that has to go her porch looks so adorable with the wooden snowman and the light pole I made her ages ago she loves when I make her things that no one else has!!!
I used one large snowflake from the dollar store, 3 packs of smaller snowflakes a package of doilies and 2 packs of Jolee.s snowflake stickers so it cost about $10 to make it I want to give it to her early but I shall wait!
If you have any questions how I made it drop me a line I hot glued everything in layers
Thank you for looking and Hugs from Ohio...

Up-cycled Kitchen Canisters and Cutting board

Well after this big move I am still putting things in places but decided I better start making my daughters Christmas presents.  She finally decided to go to college and get her own place, and she wants a theme of Coffee on her kitchen.
I bought the canisters at the GW ended up being a $1 and the cutting board I found and the general dollar store for 70 cents so I scored big time.  I also picked up a tin coffee mug it is huge and a candle holder and salt and pepper shakers they are in the works now
I found the images by using google was actually wallpaper border I decoupaged them and voila this is what I came up with may tie some burlap around them for accent.
