many of us like to put up a few decorations around the house and here are a few ideas for some handmade decorations from Shabby girl Jenneke and our guest this month Maria.
Jenneke has made up some gorgeous snow domes and has put togther some steps to share with us all here and Marie has made up some really cute xmas trees inspired by an article she seen in Scrapbook Creations magazine by Carol Lee Morgan that she has up on the Artistic forum.
Jenneke's snow domes

Clean a jar and printout a vintage image including a flipped image. I found mine on
Vintage Holiday Crafts.
Consolidate the image with a piece of cardboard and glue the two images together.

Fold the bottom of the images and glue it on the bottom of the jar.

Cut some small pieces of paper, curl them with a scissor and drop them into the jar.

Decorate the jar with lace, ribbons and all kinds of Christmas stuff you like.

You can do the same with jars in other shapes and use other images and decoration. And of course it's not only a Christmas idea! You can make them for any other opportunity!!
Hope you'll have fun making them!

You can find the instructions for Marie's trees
