My seasonal accomplishments.

I generally don't attempt crafty things.  This year, however, I was in the mood to create something festive.

These are my attempts.

Button Christmas Trees.

 Tin Can Advent Calendar.

I would like to say the ideas were mine, but they came from here and here.

I am the first to admit that most of my crafts do not turn out the way they are supposed to, but these two were easy.  The hardest part was finding the supplies.  Buttons and pins were particularly challenging.

(Right Jodie?)

If you are interested, I found most of the supplies for the button tress at JoAnn fabrics, in the store and online.  I also saw them on Amazon.com. 

I found the tin buckets at Walmart.com.
