Running short on gifts? Running short on cash? Here are some quickie craft ideas to finish off your gift list.
- Have any burnt out lightbulbs? Spray paint them and turn them into snowmen, reindeer, or just plain bulbs. Attach wire to metal end and hang from tree.
- Go to your local goodwill, salvation army, or other donation center. Buy some very cheap frames. Even the one with the picture of a kitty doing ballet? Yes, that one too. Take them home and throw out any pics or painings they may have come with. Paint the frame with spray paint or left over wall paint. You can leave as a solid color or decorate by gluing on buttons or other craft items. This would also be a great project for kids to help with. Then when dry, add in a family photo or put in a nice piece of scrapbook paper with a nice printed out quote.
- Cut a posterboard into a wreath shape. Have your child dip their hand into green paint and make prints around the outside and use their fingers as the berries. Add a picture to the center and a ribbon to the top to hang it from. If possible laminate.
