Log Cabin Christmas Jar


Since there will be no little ones here
this year, we decided not to put up the
tree.  We have lots of other decorations
to make it festive but, I wanted to 
display one of my favorite ornaments. 
I have an inexpensive jar, some
brush bottle trees, Santa Claus snow
(looks like mica flakes), regular snow
and some quilt batting.
I had all this stuff in my craft
stash.
I love this cabin ornament.
I left the hanger in place. I might
want to hang it on the tree again.
I brushed the trees with glue and
sprinkled with the mica flakes.  A
little bit on the roof of my
cabin ornament too.
I used the quilt batting for some
landscaping.
Sprinkled my snow.
Stuck in the trees and a little fawn.
I spray painted the lid a
gunmetal gray.
Done.
Simple and easy!

  5. A cabin in a jar; just perfect for your cabin home. Your photos are wonderful. I especially like the one taken through the glass.
