Quick Five! Christmas

Well, it's only October, but Christmas is coming on fast!  I went to the store today and caught the bug because of all the Christmas items that are out already!  Well, the funds are slim this year, so...I found a few cute things on Pinterest today that I want to try.  So simple and a great way to use what I have!

Don't you just love this modern twist on a door wreath?  With a quick splash of spray paint and a few decorated ornaments and ribbon, you can turn a discarded frame into a fabulous Christmas display.  I love this and it will be a great project to work on with my Mom.

Since we are living in a smaller house, how about a smaller tree - a skinny tree!  There's a slight possibility I won't have to move anything out of the living room for a tree like this.  The featured tree was made by the owner, so...no tree purchase!  I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.... 

I love these cute ornaments!  Do you have some canning lids and an unused  flannel shirt that can work for this one?  Plaid is in, so this project is a perfect one for this year

I also love these beautiful heart ornaments too!  Well, let's just say I love all kinds of ornaments!  But these might be some of my recent favorites.  They are so sweet and dainty.  utilize those old broaches in your costume jewelry box and spruce up your tree with these treasures.

Now let's not forget the grandchildren in all this celebration!  I have Mattox, my two-year old bundle of unlimited energy with me most days and I think this would make the perfect gift for his parents.  He loves doing things for others and he will be so proud of this one for Christmas.  It's never too early to teach the kids how to give.



Well, I hope you enjoyed my quick five for today!  Now all I want to do is get started making some Christmas cheer!
