Crafts of the weekend.

I did a few quick crafts this weekend:



I printed out our wedding song (Green Eyes by Coldplay) and aged the paper by soaking it in black coffee.  I then pasted it to brown paper.  Not sure if I am in love with the placement.  I definitely didn’t want to pay for a custom frame so this was the size that I had to go with.  Michael’s is having a frame sale this week -- buy 1 get 1 for a penny.  




Okay.  So you know of my jar hoarding issues now.  The second craft is these darling little winter decorations.  I used mason jars and tiny little trees from those Christmas villages.  These literally took less than a minute.  Hot glue the tree to the inside of the jar lid.  Put a handful of artificial snow in the jar, screw top on and flip over.  These will not be all for us so act surprised if you get one for Christmas.
