Rusty Springs, my new favorite decorating prop for Christmas! Grab yourself some rusty springs and see what I mean! ...

Today I'm making stars from a repurposed wooden roller shade I took down a while back. This was a super fun project with a surprise for even me at the end! ...

When I saw this black Christmas tree in a photo of someone's bathroom I knew I had to make one for myself!  Little did I realize until I started just how easy it was to do...

This reclaimed wood project was easy to make and adorable either plain like it is or decorated with your own ornaments...  photo source

When you purchase a package of drop cloth fabric you will have enough for about a zillion projects.  Ok, maybe not a zillion but so many you'll be busy from now until Christmas for sure! 

This simple stuffed ornament project is so versatile! You can use just about any stencil, not just the cute tree stencil I used.  I used scrap fabric and the rest was easy...

The Christmas cards will start rolling in at any time! Are you ready for them? Where do you keep them?  Do you display your Christmas cards? 

A while back my daughter was cleaning house and was throwing away a bunch of painted canvases.  You just know I grabbed them out of the trash and saved them for another day...

Here's an easy project that uses scrap wood from shipping pallets.  
I've made them before but this time I'm painting them with a gorgeous new color and stenciling them with Christmas sayings...

Every once in a while I have to take apart an old project and make it over again.  Today as I wait for my new kitchen to be finished I'm repurposing a pot rack I no longer need...

This idea was a complete experiment that I created as I went. Sometimes those end up to be my favorite projects...

Today I'm reposting one of Homeroad's first 2011 Christmas projects, the photos were taken with old technology but the hinge tree is still a great idea! 

Are you ready for a little Christmas? 
Over the years on Homeroad I've literally made hundreds of DIY Christmas decorations. 
Of all the fun projects I've made, Christmas trees are my favorites...

Do you know what you're looking for when you go thrifting? Sometimes I do and sometimes I just browse.  Yesterday I was browsing and came across an excellent find that just needed one small tweak! 

I've seen pouches that hang on hooks before and I love the look. I decided to create one for Christmas using drop cloth fabric and a stencil and I have the perfect place to hang it! 

Do you have Christmas traditions you follow every year or are you looking to start a few new ones? You may or may not be ready for Christmas but today I'm sharing our family traditions that go back for generations...

This beautiful Christmas stocking was an experiment from the beginning. After seeing a neutral stocking in a holiday magazine I thought I'd try to make one for myself!
