Crafty Tuesday - Because that's all I could do.

My camera is in the shop and the internet has been down for days [yeah! it's back up - at the moment!] which leaves me feeling behind the eight ball and out of touch.

So Harrison and I sat down the other night and [ I ] made sweet little Christmas stars out of sticks that we collected.I found the idea on a blog that led me here. (So sorry I can't remember the original cool blog I saw it on...)

 
 
We have since added twinkle lights and garland - but the camera is not available...

I didn't have luck using the clothespins to hold the stars together but Harrison enjoyed creating a twig and clothespin sculptures. 

All in all we hung out on the floor and worked with sticks for about 2 hours.



Who knew it only took a handful of twigs, a pair of scissors, and twine to keep him quiet and occupied for TWO FULL hours!


I love sticks!

  5. Oh, how I love these! What a great project for you and Harrison to work on. I love these types of earthy holiday decorations. I remember doing stars when I was younger with colored string and sticks, too. :)

Everyone one loves comments and I am no exception but life has gotten crazy in the last couple of years and yet I want to respond. So I've started responding to comments directly on my blog. Heck, I should have done this LONG ago...

So...

Add Some Color!
