Little do they know how simple it really is! For a more vintage vibe these adorable Ice Skate Ornaments are perfect. They’ll make you want to head to the nearest ice rink and lace up your skates.

Use up your leftover trim and make this All the Trimmings Tree. They are easy to make so go ahead and make your own winter wonderland forest! Nothing says festive like a classic garland strung on your banister. This cute Be Merry Christmas Garland will do just that.
