Christmas is Around the Corner!

After time decorating the booth, we are now ready for the holiday season.  We came across some really cute ideas for handmade ornaments that were simple and fun to make. 

Our first project was fabric covered candy canes.  The fabric I took was from a pair of jeans and stripped into 1/4 inch strips and wrapped plastic candy canes that were bought from the Dollar Tree.  We made these by the dozens. Some we left just looking like candy canes and others we made heart shape with a bit of sprig of mistletoe in the center.

Materials needed: fabric strips, candy canes, & a hot glue gun.  
The booth isn't really making us any real money yet, however, it has made enough that the overhead is taken care of.  We keep looking for different ways to make us stand out of the crowds. (300 booths in this location).  Making Cinnamon Ornaments now to add to the booth.  Maybe the smell of Christmas will draw people in.

Like I've said before, You never know until you try.
