They really keep their color too.
When Staples contacted me to see if I wanted to be a part of this challenge to create beautiful holiday decor hacks using products from their stores for their #HandmadeHolidays promotion, I was a little nervous.I mean, I guess I’m creative and all but I’m not really.
I wanted to give it a shot though and see if I could do it, just for fun.If I didn’t come up with anything totally amazing, no harm done.When I went into my local store though to see what I could pick up that might work, I was so surprised at the ideas that were flying out at me from every aisle!
I mean, I practically had to duck because there were just too many ideas to handle!I narrowed it down to just a few of my favorites though, so here they are!.
The first idea I had was to add some black and white photos to our simple dining room tree.
I love the look of photo ornaments on a tree and I’ve wanted to do something like that for a long time, but the idea of making an ornament out of each and every photo that I wanted to use always seems so daunting to me.Then I got home and I remembered that I’d thrown out my little.
rotating cheese grinder thing.(you know, like they bring around the table at Italian restaurants) a few years ago in a fit of decluttering and I just didn’t want to use a regular cheese grater for the Parmesan on top of the pasta.
It just didn’t seem right.So I made these curls instead!.
