Lightening speed holiday decorating

I'm still on my never ending task of Christmassing up my house.  Just when I think its done, I do a bit more.

Nothing big, or complicated. Today I stashed glittered stars in my potted plants on the windowsill.

And sat out a little angel.  2 minutes and I was done. And it makes me smile when I wash dishes.

This little cabinet has been sitting on my counter waiting to be decorated every since the remodel and I have not put it to use yet.

Now, its happily filled with little putz houses.  There went another 2 or 3 minutes of decorating time!

This one was just about as quick.  I had this feather wreath (from a garage sale), and after I hung it up, I was thinking it was looking a little molty.  So, I grabbed a bagful of millinery blooms and stuck them onto it with pearl head pins. One pin for each flower, so it will be easy to take apart when I put the wreath away.

One more speedy project was adding a set of feather angel wings to this lamp.  I tied a crystal to it too, this one was one that we made in the Romantic White Christmas online class last year, the back of it is covered with a vintage image and glitter.

Jen Rizzo is having a holiday party, I'm linking up there today.

  7. I made one of those boa wreaths three or four years ago and every year it takes a different incarnation! I love the flowers with it — perfect in every way! (And I thought I was the only one sticking flowers and sparkles in my plants!)
