Last weekend a couple friends and I hosted an afternoon of cider, cheesy chili and plenty of silly holiday craft making. Before that my feet were dragging into the inevitable season changes and the holiday spirit. It so happened this ended up on the first snow day of the year and spending it warm indoors with happy people sparking creativity everywhere was just what I needed to flow into the season.If you are thinking of having a holiday get together, try your own craft time on a lazy weekend afternoon. You can do anything simple from collaging holiday cards, baking cookies, gluing things on ornaments or more complex like sewing a stocking or painting a picture.
It's such a great way to get into the spirit, spending quality time with friends old and new. Here are some great websites to get you inspired!
She does step by step projects for everything from food to clothes and so many of them are really simple to do. I love the sweater stocking project!
Their website has an easy to search DIY tab that you can pick your material and/or level of difficulty.

Try this easy stacked felt circle wreath by Kojo Designs. You could also try torn newspaper spray painted gold with some red ribbon. I have also done one with torn fabric just tied on a hanger.
Have fun, get creative and share any other great ideas. Happy crafting!
