Scenes from the weekend

Other than the big things to decorate as the tree and mantle, I like to have little decorations in the living room and family room nooks and crannies. I worked on creating little corner decor so I feel holiday cheer at every turn.

Something easy was to place some fake snow at the bottom of a couple hurricanes and place my collection of vintage ornaments on top.

I also made this magazine tree I saw demonstrated on Martha last week. Can you believe this is just a magazine, some spray adhesive and glitter? Brillant! Full directions here.

I also glittered some plastic animals, magnets, letters and basically everything I could find around the house. More on that later. All this crafting worked up an appetite, so I made some cookies naturally. Hope everyone else did little things around the house to make it feel more like the holidays!
