Peace and Joy (chipboard letters)

I don't go into Target a lot (they have too much fun stuff there) but when I do, I always check out the dollar section. Sometimes I find great stuff, sometimes not. On this trip I found some silver chipboard letters, score!

I bought two packages in case what I wanted to spell needed two letters. Now I wish I bought 3 because Merry Christmas has 3 R's. Bummer.  I found the bakers twine at Hobby Lobby, they had lots of colors.

So I went for "Peace and Joy" and I love how it turned out. It was such a simple craft. I used a small hole punch and just thread the bakers twine through, super fast and simple.

I used some clippings from our Christmas tree to decorate in and above our curio cabinet.

You can see in the background I now get to use my thankful frame for Christmas cards. I love having a place to display the fun pictures and cards.

For the letters that only needed one hole punch I taped the back to the string so they would lay flat. If you look close you can see the tape.

Two weeks left until Christmas and my house is finally decorated. Now the wrapping of presents begins. One of these years I am going wrap as I buy so I am not so overwhelmed. Someday.

I wish your family all the peace and joy of the season!
