JOY Centerpiece


This project was inspired by a similar one I saw at a local craft store. I particularly liked the small, low profile . . . can't have something too tall or large taking up valuable real estate on the dining table, huh? The original project used wooden blocks a little larger than these card stock ones, but the price was better on these = D Templates for the boxes I made can be found here. Mel's blog is awesome and full of patterns and ideas, so prepare to visit awhile when you visit. I only used the bottom portion of the boxes and turned them upside down. I used American Craft dp and red satin ribbon, then covered some chipboard letters with SU's Real Red card stock. The three boxes are held together with mere paper clips. I'll add some silk holly and a couple of candles and viola!

I hope everyone is having a fabulous day. It is nasty and rainy here, but I'll take rain over snow any day, thank you very much.

Hugs,

Colleen
