So, to make Christmas Ornaments you pretty much just dump everything in glitter, right?

'Cause that's pretty much the route I took with these fabulous little mini chipboard houses from Retro Cafe Art Gallery. Just say'n. And it was FUN STUFF, people! For reals!



HOLY LOTTA GLITTER, BATMAN!!! The first of the three is this adorable red house. This is, perhaps, the nice middle aged couple down the street. They have the two car garage, the perfectly manicured lawn and the barn star positioned just perfectly. Their holiday decorations go up appropriately just after Thanksgiving. You know them, right? They keep the decor simple, but festive and pretty.



The next one is the younger, professional couple down the way. They go with less traditional colors, perhaps a bit more trendy, but still keep it tasteful and pretty. They might be Jewish, actually, in which case the colors would be more on the traditional side, but you know....



Lovely, isn't it? And then...well, then there is those people down on the corner. You know the ones. They have every blow up decoration ever invented, colored lights all over the place, animated santa and reindeer lifting off the roof, and who KNOWS what else in that yard. You seriously have to wonder what their holiday electric bill looks like. Particularly because they put it all up on Halloween! HA!



Ahhh...yes, that one. But, what it amounts to in the end, is a neighborhood FULL of Christmas cheer, and THAT, my friends, is what makes it all so wonderful! So, to each his own and may we all just be HAPPY! (You can find the supplies to create these wonderful little house ornaments at Retro Cafe Art Gallery. The ribbon/twine on them is all May Arts.)
