    White rick rack glued around the outside edge of the gingerbread man would have been very cute.

    Went to a Barnes and Noble today. They had 3 different William Morris calendars for 2024.
    I decided to buy the wall calendar because there were only two left. I figured I should, just in case Sherry comes up with some great new ideas for us! 😹

    @vincentadler6486 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Hell yea, I love this woman, thank you for making an extremely depressing and difficult time feel like it can still be filled with fun and joy. The price of these ideas are so low that you'd think it would end up sad and trashy, but oh my goodness they are SO CUTE and honestly 100% would be sold at a cute little craft store for like 20 bucks, you just know it. Ugh, thank you!!

  • @heidigresh2743
    @heidigresh2743 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Thank you! I’m so tired of seeing cheap dollar tree crafts that look so childish. I love your creativity. The cone would be cute as a mussy tussy from Victorian times.

    Sherry, I always say that you can pick up stuff that others would throw away and make into something beautiful and you’ve done it again. If I glued some twigs together, that’s just what it would look like but not you you make a very cute little lantern out of them. Everything you just made looks very beautiful. Thanks for showing us all how to do these little decorations. They are so beautiful and you are so talented.

    Sherry, I love the bitty twig lantern, and who would have guessed that you’d put a bird in there. 😂 I like what you do with old greeting cards-so inexpensive but elegant. And didn’t I love the teeny Shiny Brite ornaments? Well, shoot! I think ALL the projects were clever and adorable.

  • @jeanne-marie8196
    @jeanne-marie8196 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Looking forward to the next video! As always, your creativity amazed me! I really liked the little drum! So cute. The stick lantern with the bird inside, made me think the bird had built it himself! The old Christmas card projects turned out great. Who knew a plastic spool could be reused to such advantage? Thanks, Sherry

    I always enjoy your ideas especially when it comes to using items I already have. I already made some of the snowflakes both mini and regular size. Then I looked at them and said now what. I wanted more than just glitter. Being I save everything I still have the clips I took off. Now I can make a much nicer snowflake that is so much more. Thank you for all these great ideas. I love to make my own decorations more than store bought.

  • @helenamirian908

    This is exactly how people in the Victorian era made ornaments and decorations! They saved colorful images from advertising etc and embellished them, adding them to cotton, pine cones etc.

    • @CanterburyCottage

    Hi Sherry. Terrific Christmas decorating ideas video! This year our toddler grandchild will be right at 2 years old. I have been mulling over how I would decorate our huge 10 foot high family tree with no breakable ornaments. Want our grandchild to be able to touch the tree without worrying about any breaking of glass ornaments. Love the clothes pin snow flakes ornaments will definitely be made. Loved all the projects as always. Always look forward to your videos. Great job! Love the gingerbread pillow too.

  • @PellyjellyMom
    @PellyjellyMom ปีที่แล้ว

    I love hand made Christmas Ornaments. This year I am making “candy sticks” for my red, white, and wood ornament theme. Cut a reusable plastic straw to about the length of a dollar bill. I tore thin strips of red and white mattress ticking long enough to tuck in the end and glue with a drop of glue. Begun twisting the fabric tightly from the top down tucking in the end when the candy stripe is done. I made a small red twine hanger to glue to the back. On the top of the stick I glued pine sprigs and a white plastic snow flake. I used a little Decoupage on the twisted fabric to bind the twists. Tea or coffee dyed red and white pipe cleaners twisted into candy canes are inexpensive and look rustic and woodsy.

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  ปีที่แล้ว

      I bet your candy sticks are adorable! I also love your idea of using red, white, and wood for your tree. I haven’t decided on a tree theme this year. It may be “dog treats” because my new puppy gets into everything! 😜

    Wow, your brain is amazing! I just started crafting this past year and do not have the talent to look at an object and imagine it as something else. So for now, I just copy everyone else's ideas and put my own spin on it. Hopefully one day I will be able to just create on my own.

    @serenakoleno9338 ปีที่แล้ว

    If only I had time to craft all these wonderful items! I loved the matchbox idea, only just glueing design to cover top and bottom and so matches can be used. Great for candles or big box of fireplace matches. Last year I melted old candles and some crayons to dip pinecones in for fire-starters. The covered matches would be a great addition. Twig lantern was adorable and basically free. TFS

  • @Jen.O
    @Jen.O ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Sherry, with the stuffed gingerbread figure, if the crafter wants to sew first then turn the project to the right side, they will need to add a seam allowance around all outer edges, 1/4" should do.
