But when you don’t have a craft store in town, the ends of q-tips work just fine! I’m sure if you walked into a craft store, you’d find the perfect little marshmallows and more.
So cute!Įasiest picture frame in the world! My vintage clipboards were too long, so a new one won this round.īut the flickering fire pit did it for me. Then the rest just fell into place.Ī little scrap piece of gingham fabric was torn and hung from the tree, garland / scarf style. I allowed the snow to completely dry before setting it up.Ī battery operated tealight was placed inside the mason jar rim, faux plastic snow topping it to hide the tea light, then firewood. Heavy on the bottom, graduating to lighter towards the top. The crate was waxed with Miss Mustard Seed’s Furniture Wax (so it would be easy to clean), allowed to cure, then sprayed with spray snow. The little tea light flickering under the plastic snow is the cutest thing!Ĭute! But this didn’t feel snowy enough for what I desired. Small holes were drilled into branch cuts for the trees.Īll set up for the winter marshmallow roast.

Wait until you see how enchanting this Christmas shadow box snow scene with fire pit turned out… and just how easy it was to make! Christmas shadow box snow scene with fire pit Perfect fit, with room to play down below. The picture was clipped to a clipboard, then held in place with a screw. I rummaged through my stash for the perfect crate. I was about to land my first ever Christmas village… or rather, create a Christmas shadow box snow scene with fire pit made with an old crate! What do you need little tree…Īnd then it hit me. Update: sorry but this print is no longer available.Įvery time I glanced at that adorable print, the tree kept speaking to me. So when I became the proud owner of this sweet originally hand painted print of a red VW bug carrying a Christmas tree by Craftberry Bush, (isn’t it darling?!) I knew I had to do something special with it.
I simply didn’t have enough flat surface avail. That village was quite an impressive collection!Īnd perhaps that’s why I was never drawn to collect my own. But when she passed on, I was tempted to take it. Every year, we’d carefully unwrap each precious little cottage to create a dreamy little winterscape on mom’s stereo cabinet. My brother would generally dig into the crawl space for her special holiday treasures, then unearth box after box, with everyone getting to work.īut without a doubt, the snow village had the most boxes. The family would all join forces, and meet up at her place one evening. One thing my mom always had on display every Christmas without fail, was her snow village.
