DIY Life

Yes, there are a TON of holiday themed crafting projects out there, but here a few of the newer, better ones that have caught my eye.

Flower Wreath made from recycled sweaters from Betz White. (via Craft)
It's probably meant for hanging, but I kind of want to cuddle with it.

Christmas banner from the Richmond Craft Mafia.
Banners seem to be making a comeback with the crafters, why should Christmas decorations not be part of the fun?

Polymer Clay Gingerbread Houses from Polymer Clay Express. (via Craft Gossip)
I can't decide if these are cute or vaguely creepy. Either way, me likey.

A roundup of tutorials for advent calendars from WhipUp and another from CraftyDaisies. (via Curbly)
Who knew advent was so popular? I don't even remember what it's about and I went to catholic school! I think this one (pictured below) from Split Coast Stampers is my favorite.


Elf Clogs from AllSorts.
I'm not even sure what you'd use these for (or how they could possibly be warm enough for those elves at the North Pole) but they're adorable.

Pine Tree Sachets from the Purl Bee.
I think these would look better done entirely in green yarn but they're still cute, yet understated. Just how I like my holiday decor.
