Tis the Season to be Jolly
(take it Russ…)
In our house, we have an after-Thanksgiving tradition. We break out the movie “Christmas Vacation” and watch it while we decorate the tree. This year, I’m excited to be adding another handmade item to our holiday decorations.
I had a field day at Hobby Lobby’s sale last weekend. It was so hard to control myself from walking out with the entire stock of Christmas decorations. I showed some restraint and just picked up what I needed for this craft. Then I took inventory of the rest of the store for my next visit 🙂
To make this festive craft, you will need:
Jingle bells
Pipe cleaners
(It doesn’t get much easier than that, right?)
Step 1: String your jingle bells onto the pipe cleaners
Step 2: Take one end of each strand and twist together
Step 3: Twist the jingle bell strands together
Step 4: Bring the strands together so they form a circle and twist to secure.
These will look so pretty on your holiday table.
Do you have any special items for your table? I would love to see them. Leave me a link below.

Those look great! And I think they’d be easy enough for my kiddos to string the bells, too. Thanks for the idea (again!)!
