Precious!Ĭan you guess what this is? It's a crushed coke can, painted to look like Santa! Katie made this in 1st grade! This is a special ornament David made in kindergarten last year. My baby, 16 years ago.love this ornament so much! It's a snowman painted onto a knife!! There is wire wrapped up the handle, to hold a bow and hook. This is one of Walmart's fab $1 glitter churches - I put it on some glittery basket filler, under a glass light dome from Goodwill, topped with a glittery bow. Here are a few of my favorite decorations and ornaments this year. Most Christmas items will be 50% off on Sunday, and then for the next week or two they will be marked down again and again, up to 90% off! Stock up and save now, and you'll be way ahead of the game come next November! Cookie tins too! Check the clearance section of your grocery store too - chances are you'll find some good Christmas things there. The dollar store is a treasure trove of Christmas clearance! I get tags, tissue paper and bags here for 50 cents. They'll also be on sale! My favorite stores for after-Christmas shopping are Target, Wal-mart, Hobby Lobby & Michaels! Pier One has good stuff too, but they are pricier to begin with, so 50% off isn't really a good deal to me. Patrick's Day! And don't forget cookie tins, ziploc bags, treat bags and other holiday baking products.
I also look for cute stocking stuffers for next year, Christmas-themed things like Kleenex, paper towels, and even candy - red hershey kisses and m&m's can be used for Valentine's Day, the green ones for St.
I do! I try to get the things I used up this year: Christmas cards, tissue paper, bows, ribbon, gift bags, gift card holders, plus new ornaments, lights, dishes, etc.
