Christmas Ideas on Happiness Is Homemade
Welcome to Happiness is Homemade Party
Welcome to the party! Christmas is coming fast. I had a nice week with my decorating done and hubby was out of town. I enjoyed the decorations and started to plan my Christmas menu. I also bought all of the ingredients I need to make cookies and candy. That I will start Sunday. it is supposed to rain, so it sounds like a good day to bake.
Now it is on to Christmas. Have you already started decorating for Christmas? I have chosen some Christmas decor and dessert ideas to get you in the mood.
Missed the party last week? Check it out here!
Picket Fence and A Christmas Centerpiece
Picket Fence and A Christmas Centerpiece
As I was thinking of what to use for my dining room Christmas centerpiece, I wondered around the house. I bought this picket fence in PA a few months ago. I wondered how could I use it. I should have taken a picture of just the picket fence, but didn't.
It was so sunny today as I tried to get pictures. (I am not complaining about the sun - love it)
It's not everyday you attempt to put a picket fence on your dining room table. I have been known to use some strange pieces for trays. Last year I made a sled (You can see that here) For my autumn tray I used a pelt stretcher, so a picket fence should not be a surprise.
There are three pieces to the fence, each one is about 16 inches wide and each picket is 20 inches long. So I laid one section down and the others became the back. I folded the other two pieces to make an upside down "v" so it would stand up.
Here is the back panel. I love all of the colors and the "chippiness" (is that a word) of the pickets.
I placed a tree on the front panel and then found a large piece of white felt to use as the shirt around it.
On the one side, I added a rustic bell, a snowman and some trees.
On the other side, I added two glass tree ornaments. I didn't want to use them as ornaments, but they look cute as trees here.
I added fairy lights to the tree. Although with the sun shining in that window, it makes them blurry.
I love how it turned out, however, there is not much room on my table when we have Christmas dinner. I will have to move it to the kitchen table and put one of my other pieces on that table so we can place the food on it.
I hope you enjoyed my picket fence centerpiece.

Holiday Decorating on Thursday Favorite Things
Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things Party
Happy Thursday dear friends. Here we are in December. It seems to have arrived too soon. Christmas will be here before we know it. I am mostly ready - house is decorated and most of my packages have been shipped.
I still have some presents to buy for hubby and some baking to do. I will start baking this weekend. I am making some chocolate covered Oreos for my nephew. He loves them. There is a candy store in PA where my Mom lives that make these but they are expensive so I thought why not make my own.
How is your Christmas decorating going? Do you bake? Good luck with all of your projects.
Many of my features come from your comments. Don't forget to leave our Linkup Number or Post Title so I can find you and you might become one of my features for next week.
