Countdown to Christmas Day 21

Hey & Happy Weekend!

Today is a chill out day for me & my husband as we've done our Christmas shopping present wise and we don't have Christmas dinner to cook as we go to his Mam's to be fed over the festive days! Though we will have a walk to the supermarket to buy food for Sunday dinner as it has become tradition for us to host Sunday dinner the Sunday before Christmas Day. 

This year as I now have a lovely wreath centre piece on the table which I shared with you all HERE, I thought it would be nice to make a little more effort with decorating the table and made these little whine glass charms...




Yep, I haven't quite finished with the Designer Die Snowflakes yet! I had to have a go at die cutting some shrink plastic and it worked a treat. I used the largest snowflake die for the charms and added a few silver seed beads to the wire loops. The medium snowflake would shrink to a nice size too if you wanted to fill the charm a little more. 




After I had put the jump ring through the hole in the snowflake I covered one side of the snowflake in stickles to add that much needed sparkle before assembling the charm. Just another quick and easy way to add some Christmas cheer. 

Ok, I had better go and make a little shopping list so I don't forget anything! I will be back tomorrow with more to share, until then THANK YOU for stopping by today :)

Supplies
Accessories: Uniko Studio Designer Dies Snowflakes. Shrink Plastic (White). Wire Rings, Jump Rings, Seed Beads & Stickles.

  1. What a great idea, these are great Beverley. I always forget about my shrink plastic which is in my cupboard somewhere. I may have to pinch your idea next year, after I've definitely purchased your snowflake dies! xx
