Pink Christmas Pretties

Hello Blogger Friends!

I have been so busy creating so many beautiful things and decorating my house for Christmas that I haven't updated my blog lately! I wanted to share some of these beautiful creations with you I have been working so hard on.
This is a very ugly snowman that I bought at a local craft store. I thought he needed a makeover so I took him to my workshop and . . . Now he is ready for Christmas at my enchanted Christmas cottage! Much better don't you think?


I am so in love with this snowman and when things are super cheap after Christmas I hope they have some more like him so they can get makeovers too!


Aren't the lacy scarf and the pink jingle bells the best! It turned out much prettier that I expected!


Here is another ugly Santa that was in need of a makeover. After some paint and glitter . . .



he looks much better! I love the sweet Christmas bells on his front.



This cute snowman got a makeover too. I had so much fun repainting these guys. It was a lot of work but it was worth it. Just look at the difference!


He is so sweet now! I may paint some rose buds on his little snow pail if I can remember before I box him up for the season.





Here are some ornaments I made. This one was a tin treat cup that I painted ivory, distressed, and embellished with paper, glitter, and gems. I love these ornaments because they look so old and vintage! They are on my beautiful tree in my kitchen that I will show you soon!





This ornament was a series I made using fleece fabric, ribbon, buttons, glitter, and other embellishments. I made 6 different ornaments in this set. I love the snowflake on this ornament.


I made these ornaments from fabric scraps that I wrapped around a candy cane shape, then embellished them. I love how they look on my sweet pink tree in my living room. I will show that to you soon!


Aren't these ornaments gorgeous! I made them from ornaments I was going to throw away ( I know I am ashamed) but decided I could do something with them. I am so glad I did! They are covered in vintage music sheet paper and mica glitter. They are some of my favorite I have made this year. They are on my kitchen tree. Can't wait for you to see!


I made large and small ornaments but only the large ornaments have the NOEL tags on them.



I made this beautiful piece right after Thanksgiving. I saw something similar on Pinterest but it was red and green - yuck!!! So I took the idea and made it my own. The frame was so ugly when I bought it but now it is pretty in pink! I am loving it!!!



I made this "snow globe" from a Pinterest idea too. I cut the letters on the front of the jar out of a newspaper - there were plenty in a stack in my utility room rotting away. I am in love with painted pink jingle bells this year. You will see when I show you pictures of my Christmas cottage. If you like pink you will love my nest!






I have made tons of other things for Christmas and I am in the process of making some to-die-for stockings so please check back next weekend for more goodies!




I hope you are enjoying every single minute of this magical Christmas season. The time just goes so quickly and there are so many things to do! I hope you have a blessed weekend whatever you do!




Blessings to you!


Love Tammy
