Today I thought I'd share a few holiday DIY ideas from across the internet that you might like to try out!
We got our first holiday card in the mail this weekend, which made me think about what I was going to do with all the cards this year. I love, love, love this Christmas Card Display idea from Thyme is Honey.
Sadly, I don't have an empty wall (or get enough cards) for such a display. But maybe some day!
I don't know about you, but I've been using cotton swabs as paint tools forever. I didn't realize that Q-Tip — as a brand — now actively encourages that kind of behavior! They have an entire section on their website dedicated to art + craft! These are some fun wrapping paper decoration ideas:
Wrapping pretty packages is as fun for me (maybe more fun) than finding the perfect gift. I am naturally drawn to gift wrapping ideas. Traditionally, I've painted or stamped gift wrap (much like the photo above), but this year I'm in different kind of mood. These pretty packages wrapped with leaves and stamped clay tags from burkatron have me swooning:
I must be in a minimalist mood because I'm also obsessed with this simple snowflake wrapping idea from Splash of Something:
So simple. So nicely holiday. I love it!
Finally, Martha Stewart's team came up with a super fun decorating DIY: balloons made to look like Christmas ornaments!
This is a DIY that I'm going to have to try! What a fun way to make any space feel Christmas-ready!
Hope you're enjoying the beginning of the holiday season! Thanks for stopping by!

Oh, the simple snowflake. For a few years I became OBSESSED with cutting out paper snowflakes. It’s such a fun process because you get that surprise at the end of what the snowflake looks like once unfolded. I then glued them onto packages wrapped in blue paper. I did this for two years I think. I love it with the craft paper though! It makes me want to start snipping away again!
