A local hardware store had a clearance sale and I was lucky enough to attend at the end of the event. I bought a few things, however my favorite find during the sale was three packages of these large glittered snowflakes.
Using the Tim Holtz medallion strip die I die cut and folded thick cardstock into these 2.5" medallions. Hot glued in place. Then looked through my Stampin Up sentiments and stamped various phrases on thick craft card stock. Spellbinders labels die allowed me to fancy up the sentiments.

Beach ornament
Here is another Pinterest try.
I had every thing at home already.
Sand from Michael's
Stick and cardstock from my stash
Sea shells from various beaches
Glued twine to holder.
I think they came out cute. Hardest part is getting the stick to stay up straight...

Cloth covered plastic Dollar Tree candy canes
Saw this on Pinterest where you take the plastic candy canes from Dollar Tree and wrap them in material.
Using my hot glue gun and one inch strips of fabric, start glueing on either on.
Wrap the cane tightly and adding a little glue to hold it in place.
Added a bow and a button.
Here is the lot I made this morning

Flower Angel
Wooded beaded flower angel ornaments for my craft fair coming up.
I had all items on hand to try my hand at these as I've seen them on Pinterest.
I purchased these flowers from Michael's as part of the fall flowers discounted down 80%.
With one bloom....I was able to make three angels!
For the head I used a 25mm wooden bead.
For the wings I wrapped gathered lace around the neck area, made a figure 8 and twisted it into a set of wings and hot glued it down.
Added the faux diamond to the front and gave her a halo.

Wooden ornament with jingle bell
Using more blocks I stamped this saying using Stayzon black ink.
I love this verse from the old Christmas song and it fit perfectly on the wooden block.
To add to the twine hanger I threaded on a little bell

Snowman blocks
I painted these adorable snowmen on Dollar Tree blocks.
These started out as children alphabet blocks and I painted three layers of blue acrylic paint to cover up the letters that were painted on the side.
These started out as children alphabet blocks and I painted three layers of blue acrylic paint to cover up the letters that were painted on the side.
I then added a circle of white acrylic paint (this took 3 to 4 coats of white to cover up the blue).
I then painted on the snow on all the remaining sides.
Finished up with the nose and face features.
What I didn't take a pic of what the eye screw and twine hanger.
Made these three to sell in the craft fair.

Cinnamon stick mini ornaments
Saw these on Pinterest and this is my take on them. They are small and would be great on a mini tree or package tie.
One cinnamon stick
A small strip of ribbon
7" of twine
Punch of pine needles and a heart
Hot glue and made these rather quickly
