With a salad plate and a dinner plate add snowflakes, M&M’s (for eyes, mouth and buttons) and a napkin folded for the bow tie. Add a carrot for the nose and (not pictured) add a paper cutout of a top hat. I love the table runner of large snowflakes.
These are some great designs for those of you who love the dress Christmas trees or like something a little different.
What a great way to upcycle a wooden pallet and have a great decoration for outside. The design is meant to be a bit rustic so this project is mistake friendly. After cutting the tree you will need three 2 x 4’s that are three feet in length and one that is three feet and four inches. Cut one of these in half. The 2 x 4 that has the end pointing to you in the last photo is where we will start and this is the longest board cut. Attach two smallest pieces to each side as shown. You then need to attach the two 2 x 4’s that are three feet in length going up. Then attack to the pallet. Have fun with the paint job – the options are limitless. Here we attached white lights with green cord across but you don’t have to have lights at all. The trunk could be painted brown if you like. Pretty durable and depending on the paining you do the design could fit into anyone’s home design.
A great graphic to show how to make the incredible graham cracker house.
Wish I had the dimensions for this house to make this for our almost two year old Aurora. Looks like they used a large appliance box as the base. I would decorate it a lot more but the concept is great.
