Two Turtle Doves


Two Turtle Doves 
Christmas craft



I was excited to make these "Two Turtle Doves" ornaments for my Christmas tree. 
Here's how I made them: 

I used stiff white felt and I also used a sheet of silver felt with an adhesive back.
I goggled a printable dove stencil and used that to trace the dove out line.
I cut out the birds and the wings.

I found little tiny jems that I glued on for the eyes.
I cut the wings out of the silver sheet and applied them on the bird.
I then poked a hole and used some blue ribbon to hang on the tree.
This is such a simple craft but they look so peaceful, which works out well because :
"Peace" is my theme for this holiday season.

Family Christmas Craft Night: First Craft

The table full of craft ideas.

 First Christmas Craft :  is a scented snowy candle holders

Supplies needed, Epsom salts, Mod Podge, ribbon and blue snowflake stickers.
 
First craft to make were these snowy candle holders.  They are so easy to make.
I applied Mod Podge on the bottom half of a pickle jar and then sprinkled spearmint scented Epsom salts.  After the jar dries, I then applied a second coat of Mod Podge on it.
 


Next, I glue a blue ribbon and a bow on the top.  I also had snow flake stickers and applied a few of them to the top part of the jar.
I am putting mine in the bathroom for the holidays.  They just smell so good. Just add a tea candle and it's ready to scent the whole room.
