Anthropologie's Christmas Windows
I love Christmas window's.
Some of my favorites are always Anthropologie's.
This year was no exception.

The leaves were silk.
The pines cones were made of paper then spray painted copper.
The small birds were out of crepe paper.

The designers used crepe paper to make these beautiful swans. Amazing.

I thought these were great gingerbread houses. They were made out of cardboard and painted with white puff paint then before the paint dried they sprinkled it with clear glitter. It had a wonderful effect.

Birch Bay State Park
Always healing for your heart is a walk, especially by the sea with a friend.

DIY Dome Cover out of a Wine Glass
I saw these at a Christmas Show and I thought they'd be fun to make.
 |
| DIY dome cover out of a wine glass |
These domes are super simple to make and will be fun to decorate with.
Supplies you'll need:
1) wine glass
2) PC-Marine Putty
3) a button or an old earring
4) Weldbond glue
5) a string of beads
6) something to clip the stem with
Step one is to clip off stem of wine glass as close to the cup as possible.
Step two sand it down a bit where you clipped it.
(I just rubbed the clipped area along a cement wall it worked well.)
Step three take the putty and make it into a ball.
Then mold it onto the top of the cut stem, before it dries secure your button.

Step Four once the putty is dry, paint the Weldbond glue
over the putty then wrap beads around the putty to hide it.
Step Five for the final touch I cut out a red piece of red paper and placed it under the dome
then I added a fun elf.
