Christmas Table Centrepiece

Another Pinterest inspired Christmas DIY today. I put together the centrepiece for our Christmas Day table using candles, pine cones and sprigs of holly. 

To make this I wrapped some tea lights and pillar candles in different ribbons and secured them with super glue.  Then I arranged them on a cake stand with the pine cones and holly. It was very easy and I am really pleased with how it has come out. 

I can't wait to light all the candles on Christmas Day, I think it is going to look so pretty and festive!

DIY Christmas Cards

I saw this idea for Christmas cards on pinterest and I thought they were so cute I had to make them! You could also do this for present gift tags as it might be a little late to send out Christmas cards now. 

Here is what you will need:

 

Card

Envelopes

Super glue

A Pen

Buttons

Ribbon

To make the wreath card, I first set out the buttons into the shape and design I wanted.

I then glued down the buttons in place with super glue.

 

 Next I tied a bow out of some ribbon

 Finally I stuck the bow to the button at the top of the wreath, and that is it. It is so easy and looks so effective! 

You do exactly the same for the baubles card except after you have stuck the buttons down you use the pen to draw strings from the top of the card to the button. You can then write whatever message you want on the cards, I opted for Merry Christmas on this one.
