Good Things™ for the craft impaired

festive

Martha has a project in the December issue of Martha Stewart Living that doesn't require a live-in staff or maximizing your time by crocheting snowflakes for months whenever you sit in the loo for 5 minutes or more. Behold the pinup wreath where all you need is a 14 inch wooden embroidery hoop which you can obtain at any craft store, 15-20 small wooden clothespins and a bottle of wood glue. A bit of festive ribbon to hang it with is a nice touch as well. Simply glue the clothespins onto the hoop in 1.5 or so inch intervals while alternating direction, let the glue dry and hang. It's a cool little idea as Christmas cards don't look quite right on the fridge and this will display them in rather festive fashion :)
