Countdown to Christmas: Get Crafting!

August 1, 2010 by FaveCrafts

This weeks Christmas newsletter focuses on entertaining during the holiday season.  If you are anything like me, it really stresses you out, but it doesn’t have to be that way.  The key is to start preparing for your holiday party early. Besides the meal (and okay the presents, too) the first thing that everyone is likely to notice are the decorations.  You’ll want your house to be absolutely magical, and this is where having prepared Christmas crafts will come in handy.  You’d be surprised how much homemade ornaments  or knit red-and-green blankets can help create a festive atmosphere.

Making all the Christmas crafts on your list will take a lot of time, so it’s best to organize which ones will take the longest to complete so you know where to start.  When you begin crafting depends on how much you want to deck your halls (I couldn’t resist), but as a safe practice,  starting earlier is always best.

For some inspiration, here’s a sneak peak at some of the projects featured in Monday’s newsletter, 145 Days Till Christmas: Deck Your Halls.

For the Tree:

Mirrored Swirl Ornaments

For the Table:

Crystal Dove Centerpiece

Under the Tree:

Holly Slippers

Don’t forget to leave comments on your favorite Christmas projects on FaveCrafts.com!  If you’re lucky, you might be featured in the next edition of the Christmas newsletter.
