Craft Kits and Christmas Table

A couple of weeks ago my mom sent me an early Christmas package and lo and behold there were Martha Stewart craft kits in there! I've been having such fun scouring TJ Maxx and Marshalls for Martha craft products, which for some reason have been quite abundant in those two retailers. My mom has been on the lookout for me too and this is the one she sent.

This kit makes 20 circular Christmas ornnaments in various sizes, it includes such cute patterened papers.

The contents: pre-cut paper disks, a little glue bottle, and gold metallic thread. Of course I am going to replace the thread with my baker's twine. The best thing about finding these kits at TJ Maxx and Marshalls is how inexpensive they are, I've seen kits at Michael's for three times the price!

Assembling the ornaments.

I decided to put some of the ornaments on top of my milk glass vases on the table, but D. and I keep knocking them off when we hit the table legs.

I caved and finally bought this milk maid butter dish from Anthropologie. It's a good thing that I waited so long to buy it, I went into the store and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was half off! Good things do come to those who wait...
