I like crafts that use items I have laying around the house collecting dust. The odd vase is a perfect example. This particular idea could be used for many different seasons not just the Christmas holidays.
I made mine from some silk poinsettas I had laying around from years gone by, went out to the yard and clipped some branches off the pines trees (they needed trimming anyway) and gathered some pine cones.
Again, I am sorry I don’t have a picture of the one I made. The camera is still on the blitz. I have one on my Santa’s list, hopefully Santa will remember I really need one!
Make a vase filled with evergreens more stunning by covering it with fresh flowers. Remove the heads from roses or other seasonal flowers and then hot-glue them to a glass vase or other vessel.
Before purchasing any of the items, look around your house for items you can reuse.
Happy Holidays!
