DIY Christmas Ideas

With the Holidays just around the corner, I am getting the bug to start decorating.  So I thought I would share some of the inspirations I have found on the internet - a lot of them on Pinterest and Facebook.

Do you have a lot of old Christmas ornaments (like the ones pictured at left?)  Those pretty vintage Christmas ornaments are not mine - I found the photo at http://pinterest.com/pin/263742121899181111/ (one of my favorite places to visit now days is Pinterest!)  And I am thinking I have a lot of things lying around my house to use and repurpose for some great Holiday decorating.  

I have yet to try re-creating any of these, but hope to do so soon.  Here are some of the ideas I might just try this year.
