Christmas Wreath Party Plates

 

Need a last minute idea for your Christmas party decor?? I got you! These are so festive and adorable but super quick and easy to put together, so you can spend your time visiting with your guests instead of stressing over an elaborate table setting. Do you remember my green striped plates from my Watermelon Party Plates back in the Summer? I still had some left... In the Summer, my brain automatically saw a watermelon rind when I spotted them in the store. Now, in a Christmas mindset, my brain sees a Christmas wreath. So that's what I'm making! Don't be afraid to pull from your stash. Maybe you don't need to run out to the store for new "Christmas plates". I love to reuse and reimagine the things that I already have on hand. I think they make adorable Christmas Wreath Party Plates. You can probably find some other plates with a green design around the border that can also become a wreath or use the solid color option which I also show you in this video.

Reindeer Bead Charms

 

My favorite thing about my bead charms is that they are open to interpretation. It's all just a play on shapes and colors, just like my punch art projects. Mix up the shapes and colors to make yours your own. In this video, I show you two options for beads you could use to create a reindeer bead charm for Christmas. You could use any brown(ish) bead in a round, oval, teardrop, or other shape of your choice for the reindeer head. Also, change it up with different red beads in different finishes (crystal, pearl, AB...) for the nose in different shapes such as rondelle, round, bicone, etc.. You could even change up the antlers.. I used leafy bead caps but you could use branch connector beads or... well, just get creative.
