Ho Ho Ho

While unpacking my Christmas items I was

delighted to find this piece that

I made last year.

It still makes me smile to look at it.

 

It was made from a page from a coin holder.

I attached paper to the back side,

painted, inked and glittered the front side.

These pages came with plastic inserts

to cover the coins so it made a perfect shadow box

style hanger.

I thought it would be perfect for a little Ho, Ho, Ho display with two openings for holiday accents.

 

I glued the letters in the openings then filled each with some micro beads then slid in the plastic covering to keep the beads in.

 

I had a small Santa hat and a stocking that was once an earring that I put in the last two openings.

I put the Santa hat on the plastic to add a little interest and dimension. 

 

The hanger was a simple piece of ribbon ran through the holes that were already punched in the page.

 

I have a few more of these pages but they have 9 openings, 3 rows of 3 holes.

I might just have to put on my thinking cap and make a new sign since this one still makes me smile.

I have it hanging on the door of the cabinet I have in my hallway.

Hoping that you have a special holiday piece that
continues to make you smile year after year.
