One week until Christmas! Can you believe it?
We have been so happy to share all of our Holiday crafts, gift guides, and recipes with all of you throughout December, and we’re not done yet! Our next project is this candy cane striped Christmas wreath! You might recognize it from the Interchangeable Felt Flower Wreath we made earlier this year. It has served us so well over the past few months during the fall, football season, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. We were not kidding when we said it was interchangeable!
For this Christmas wreath, we filled the entire circle with red and white flowers in a striped pattern to create a candy cane inspired wreath! We love the way it looks on the front door.

Happy Christmas crunch time, everyone!

We’ve seen this craft floating around Pinterest so we thought we’d give it a try! This is a super simple project for you and your kids to enjoy! Put on some Christmas music and try not to eat all the m&ms.
Materials: Ice cream cones, white icing, green food coloring, m&ms, red and green sprinkles, coconut, marshmallows, and any other treats you’d like to add!
Directions:
1. Mix 10-20 drops of green food coloring into the white icing until you get the shade of green you like (we used about 10).
2. Using a knife, spread the green icing on each of the ice cream cones and set down on a plate in the arrangement you like (this part is the messiest, so do this for your youngest kids!).
3. Add candies to decorate!
4. Spread coconut around the base of the trees to look like snow.
Tada! Now you have a tasty winter forest that goes great with a neighborhood of gingerbread houses!
P.S. You probably don’t want to eat these after they’ve been sitting out, but maybe Santa’s reindeer might be interested in them…

We’re back with another holiday gift guide for women! Admittedly, this is the easiest gift guide for us to make, which is why there are two. Maybe it’s because these are the items we secretly want…but that’s neither here nor there. We hope you enjoy these pretty gifts from some of our favorite places!

We made another garland for Christmas! Our Thanksgiving garland was so popular, we decided to make another for Christmas. This time we used red and green textured scrapbook paper and ivory scrap-booking letters. It was very easy to make and we are so happy with the end result!
Materials: Green and red scrapbook paper, adhesive chipboard alphabet letters (similar), a paper cutter and/or scissors, mini clothespins, and twine. You can find all of these materials in your local craft store!
The above supplies contain affiliate links. If purchased, I will receive a commission, but the price stays the same for you!
Directions:
1. Using a paper cutter, cut scrapbook paper into 2.5 x 5 inch rectangles.
2. Cut a triangle out of the bottom of each paper rectangle using scissors. We made a stencil out of scrap paper to make sure each triangle cut was the same.
3. Remove the backing from the letters and attach to each paper flag.
4. Cut one long piece of twine (or two medium length pieces) and attach each flag with two mini clothespins, leaving equal space between the flags and extra twine on each end for hanging.
As you can see by our extensive photo shoot, this garland goes great all over the house! Hang it from your mantle, on your Christmas tree, or on any wall for a festive touch to your home.
Happy Holidays!
