Creative.

December 7, 2011 by Michelle Hinckley |

We thought we’d be in our house by Christmas but we’ve been told that’s “extremely optimistic”.
Oye.
Since all our Christmas decor is in storage we’re having fun decorating with household items
such as paper, kleenex, string, crayons, etc.  It’s been very fun for the boys.
In the meantime, here’s a cute Christmas sign I spied on Houzz made by Gail.
See if you can figure it out.
  “Noel”. 
Love the non-traditional, play on Christmas.

    Cute! Coffee filters are great for cutting snowflakes because they are easier to fold and cut than paper… 🙂 Or you could bunch them up and make a “snowy” wreath.

    I also thought it could be “Not a loser” because this IS a wreath!
    Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas! This will be one to remember, that’s for sure…

    This actually took me a few minutes. Eventually it clicked when I was saying it out loud to myself. HA!
