A temps pour Noel, les dentelles de mon arriere grand mere seront des fetes. Tout simplement enroulees autour de petit bougeoirs en verre et une bougie sans flamme.  Dans la lancee j'ai egalement decore un petit vase de dentelle et quelques artifices pour lui donner un air de fetes.
Les bougeoirs sont du plus joli effet le soir.
Bonnes fins de preparations de Noel a tous.

 
Just finished for Christmas.  On small candle holders I wrapped some of my great grand mother's laces and placed a no flame candles in it. While I was at it, I also decorated a small vase I had with a different lace and some holidays decoration so it looks more Christmas.
The candle holders are beautiful when lite at night. 
Have fun finishing preparing for Christmas.

Voila, c'est fini....jusqu'a 9 heures du soir j'etais ciseaux en mains a decouper puis coller...je me suis amuser comme une folle. Super facile a faire et resultat assure. A vous de choisir de jolis papiers suivant vos gouts...Je rappelle, lettres en papier mache recouvertes de papier scrapbook et quelques ajouts brillants. Si bien que j'ai eu une commande d'une demoiselle pour sa chambre....Allez je vais acheter de nouvelle lettres.
Joyeux Noel!
 Tadam....I am done. I was cutting and gluing until 9 pm last night. I wanted to finish my last letter. So much fun. Very easy to make et the result is neat. You just need to pick toe scrapbook papers of your choice. Remember you just need some paper mache letters you cover with paper, I also added some sparkles. The youngest lady of the house loved it and place an order for her room...well, time to go shopping.
Merry Christmas

Je vous montre des que j'ai fini!


Too busy this year to make many Christmas decorations. It is alright, I'll catch up next year. 
However, I could not resit to start a little something that is not going to take me a lot of time to make. Some paper mache letters, some Christmas scrapbook paper, glue, a pencil and a pair of scissors...
