Oh Christmas Tree

No time for blogging today, but here are some of the Christmas Cards and Gift Bags I've been making.  Either design can be used on a card or a bag, just watch the videos, and they're SO simple you actually have time to make them before Christmas even though it's less than a week away.  Merry Christmas!

Flower and Feather Fascinator

I mentioned in my last post that I'm playing with ideas for some type of hair piece featuring my beaded flowers. Here's one that (although I do love it) will not be in my wedding, so it's okay to post it online.  When I do come up with something for my wedding, it won't be on here until after I'm married (can't be too careful when it comes to a snooping fiancee).  I think showing the veil or hair accessories is right up there with letting him see the dress before the wedding.  I may not be the most traditional bride to ever walk the aisle, but some traditions must be upheld!
This fascinator is fairly simple with a single flower.  Since feathers are in right now, it has plenty of feathers.  It would look dramatic and amazing with a birdcage veil.  Or it could also be made in black or in color for a non wedding, unique hair accessory.  Whether you're hearing wedding bells or just want to try a fun look, this is a great project to try:
