HAPPY FALL-IDAYS: CHRISTMAS

Hello, ‘Fetti Fans and welcome to the third and final day of the first annual HAPPY FALL-IDAYS showcase event! Over the last 2 days we have shared numerous Halloween and Thanksgiving projects and today we are sharing Christmas projects. You are going to LOVE what the Confetti Crew has put together today (full link list of those blogging today toward the end of this post)!

. . . . .

My project for you today was really fun to put together and can be enjoyed by all ages…as proven by my kiddos that just want to shake it!

I bought this snow globe last year (or possibly the year before that) at Hobby Lobby and I have just been holding onto it waiting for the right opportunity to use it. The Santa from the new JOLLY HOLIDAY set, along with the BRANCH OUT Confetti Cuts die set.

Side view so you can see how they stand up…

I cut 2 of the Santa and 2 of the branches so that when I put them down on the “puddle” of hot glue, they would stick and stay upright better.

From the Santa pic above, you can also see the fluffy detail on Santa’s hat (Stickles + Flower Soft). The tree branches also have Stickles on them for the appearance of snow. And, of course, the bottom is filled with “snow,” as well.

I wrapped ribbon around the base of the snow globe, as to cover up the opaque plastic that is there and then I decided to dress up the top of the snow globe, too!

The holly leaves are cut from the *new* HOLLY Confetti Cuts die set and I embellished it with a wood ball/bead that is painted red and covered in ultrafine red glitter and topped off with a red rhinestone. The finishing touch is 2 jingle bells tied off with a piece of Cappuccino TWINE (have I mentioned I love this stuff!?!)
