~ Christmas Decor & The Graphics Fairy ~

Thanks to Karen over at The Graphics Fairy, I have been making some items to use for Christmas decorations. Here's what you get when you take some graphics that Karen offers up.

A couple of frames from Goodwill {at $2.99 each}, a little bit of craft paint and a scrap of fabric.

This first frame I just cleaned up and used the sheet music graphic as a background and the children graphic on top. I'm thinking I might hang this on the wall behind one of my little Christmas trees that I will be putting in my front entry {since the sheet music is entitled "Around the Christmas Tree"}.

The second frame I took red and black craft paint {since the red was a bit bright} and dulled the red a bit with the black. I just painted the inside groove of the frame with the red. I used a red fabric scrap that has a gold scroll design for the background and used the Christmas fairy graphic on top of that.

This red actually works in my big den with the red drapes I recently got from Target and the pillows from Kohl's. I think that is where it will call home for the holidays.

This just goes to show that you don't need to spend a lot of money making decor for your own home for the holidays or even to give as gifts.

I am linking this post up to Brag Monday over at The Graphics Fairy.
