Ribbon Paper Plate Prettiness

Ribbon_Paper_Plate
I love to bake and gift holiday cookies, but when it comes time to deliver them, I always seem to have forgotten to pick up cute little gift boxes and tins and end up passing out my goodies on plain old paper plates. Well not any more! This project turns those plain plates into pretty little packages.

Things you’ll need:
Paper plates
Hole punch
1/2 inch ribbon

Things to do:
1. With the hole punch, make twelve evenly spaces holes around the rim of the plate, about 1/2 inch in from the edge.

2. Thread the ribbon in and out of the hole until both tails meet on the top side of the plate.

3. Tie the tails into a bow and load up with goodies!

Easy DIY Mint Tree

Easy_DIY_Mint_Tree
Perfect for the holidays and beyond, this little mint tree is a great way to perk up your winter decor with a holiday staple. Be sure to let your family know that, once the mints have been exposed to the glue they are no longer edible!

Things you need:
Striped mints
Fiberboard doll cone
Hot glue gun and glue sticks

Things to do:
1. Start out by unwrapping the mints and disposing of the wrappings.
2. Run a bead of hot glue about two inches long, half and inch up from the bottom edge of the tree form.
3. Press the two to three mints in a row into the glue. Repeat the process until you have covered the bottom edge of the tree, making sure that the tree will sit flatly on a table.

4. Start on the next layer of mints, settling the mints on this row in between those on the bottom for a better fit.
5. Continue with this process until you have covered the entire tree. Finish with a mint on the very top.
