When I saw this on Wayfair’s site, I fell in love with it. Unfortunately, I just didn’t have that kind of money to spend on a holiday themed decoration. So, I decided to paint one myself.

Patriotic Beaded Stars
I used some iridescent clear beads to dress up some Dollar Tree stars for these little ornaments. Very easy to make!

When I was browsing through Michaels & Joanne Fabrics, I saw some bird houses in all shapes & sizes. It got me thinking of how to decorate them & use them outside. This is the first in a series of birdhouses. The post is very long because it’s picture laden. But it really doesn’t take that long to do.
