STORE.
STORE. YOU CAN SHIP THEM ONLINE.
I LOVE DOING THIS ON A KIDS
WALL.
WALL. JUST A COOL WAY TO SPRUCE THINGS
UP BUT NOT HAVE THE NEEDLES OR
THE DRESSING OF A TREE.
>> IT’S FUN FOR KIDS AND
COLORFUL TO GET THEM INVOLVED.
COME ALONG THE WAY OVER HERE.
ALSO, THIS IS SOMETHING WE USED
TO DO WHEN WE WERE KIDS.
WE GREW UP ON A RANCH.
WE WOULD GO OUT IN THE BACK 40
AND GET STICKS.
>> AND WHACK EACH OTHER WITH
THEM.
THEM. >> YOU CAN PUT THEM ON THE WALL
AND WITH SOME RIBBON AND YOU’RE
DONE.

WITH THE KIDS AT HOME.

>> CUT IT DOWN, SAND ATEIT DOWN
STICK IT ON THE WALL.
EVERYONE ALWAYS HAS LEFTOVER
ORNAMENTS.
ORNAMENTS. AND THEY DON’T USE ALL OF THEM
ON THE CHRISTMAS TREE.
HOW ABOUT, CREATE SOME
DECORATIONS AROUND THE HOUSE
WITH YOUR ORNAMENTS.
>> OKAY.
>> OKAY. THIS WAS CUTE.
>> YOU GO TO A GARAGE SALE.
OFTEN I WILL USE BIRDHOUSES WITH
PLANTS IN THERE.
YOU CAN TAKE ANY OF THE VASES
AND REMOVE THE PLANTS AND FILL
THEM WITH ORNAMENTS.

IT WORKS FOR A VASE OR A VASE,
AS YOU SAY.

YOU CAN THROW IT TOGETHER TO
MAKE A UNIQUE LITTLE TREE.

WILL SHOW YOU DOWN HERE.
>> THIS IS LITERALLY JUST
DRILLING HOLES IN DOWELS AND
WRAPPING TWINE AROUND IT.
>> IT’S ADORABLE.
>> HOW ABOUT AN OLD FRAME?
AN OLD WINDOW FRAME THAT YOU
HAVE PAINTED OUT.
YOU JUST USE THUMB TACKS AND
HAVE STRING AND TWINE, HANG SOME
ORNAMENTS AND INITIALS.
>> THE FUNNY THING, TOO, IS THIS
IS A PROJECT THAT YOU CAN TAKE
ON AT HOME EASILY IN A WEEKEND.
IF YOU DON’T HAPPEN TO HAVE AN
OLD WINDOW FRAME LYING AROUND,
YOU CAN GET THESE FOR LIKE A
BUCK IF YOU GO TO THE HABITAT
RESTORE, YOU CAN USUALLY FIND AT
GARAGE SALES AND STUFF.
THINGS LIKE THIS THAT MAKES FOR
A GREAT ORNAMENT.
>> OLD CHALKBOARD.
A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE TO HAVE A
CHALKBOARD FOR THEIR KIDS.
>> I LOVE DISPLAYING THE CARDS.
YOU GET THEM AND YOU DON’T KNOW
WHAT TO DO WITH THEM.
IT’S NICE TO HANG THEM UP.
>> YOU CAN ACTUALLY JUST DRAW
THE PATTERN DOWN HERE THAT’S THE
SHAPE OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE.
USE A LITTLE TWINE AND STRING.
WE USED TO HANG THEM THROUGH
DOORWAYS WHEN YOU WALK THROUGH.
WE USED TO HANG STRING AND WE
PUT THE CARDS ALONG THERE.
IT WAS HARD TO GET TO.
>> IF YOUR FRIENDS GIVE YOU UGLY
GREETING CARDS.
GREETING CARDS. GET NEW FRIENDS OR SUPPLEMENT IT
WITH PICTURES.
WITH PICTURES. I LOVE PRINTING OFF PICTURES OF
FAMILY MEMBERS OR COOL MESSAGES
THAT I SEE.
CUT THEM OUT OF MAGAZINES.
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO JUST BE
CARDS.
CARDS. >> YOU PUT THAT ON A CHARLIE
BROWN TREE.
BROWN TREE. >> IT’S A TOMATO -- THIS IS YOUR
FRAME FOR THAT.
JUST WRAPPED WITH GARLAND.
>> IS THAT A HULA-HOOP?
>> IT’S A RING, LIKE WHAT YOU
WOULD FIND ON A BARREL.
YOU CAN DO A HULA-HOOP.
IT HAS THE BEAUTY OF A DREAM
CATCHER BUT ALL OF THE
PHOTOGRAPHS OF YOUR FAMILY ON
THERE.
THERE. >> AND STRING LIGHTS, WE WRAP
THIS AROUND THE FRAME.
HANGING TREES AND CARDS AND
ORNAMENTS, WHATEVER YOU WANT.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, THIS IS
SO SIMPLE, KIDS LOVE TO BE
INVOLVED OVER THE HOLIDAYS.
IF YOU DISPLAY WHAT YOU CAN
CREATE WITH YOUR KIDS, IT MEANS
A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE.
YOU SEE HOW CRAFTY YOU CAN BE.
