If you have a few hours during these last days before Christmas, and need a last minute gift, then you may like the idea I am sharing with you today..
I stopped by the $ store last week and found these little boxes, trays, or frames, whatever they are, and picked up several for an easy craft project.
I simply painted them using my chalk paint, but you could use any craft paint.
As they were drying I found some really cute Christmas images on Pinterest, printed them out on my home printer, and cut them to fit the frames.
Using Mod Podge I applied a thin coat with a sponge brush to the inside of the frames, and added the images.
To finish up I bushed on another thin coat to seal the images, and some sparkling snow.
Having some extra little gifts on hand at this time of the year is so helpful for last minute guests stopping by, or to give friends when meeting for lunch, or last minute gatherings.
It is fun to pick out just the right image that you know someone would love, like the cat image for a friend of mine who loves cats.
How cute they are to place on a shelf, or tuck in a small space for just a bit of Christmas decor.
One of my favorite things to do with small gifts is to place them in a cellophane bag and tie with a big red bow.
It would be hard to find a sweeter gift, and to say to someone “I made this for you”.
Merry Christmas!
