A couple of easy little projects...

Hello my dears..
We have a bit of snow here in Maritime Canada... Not a lot but a little skiff of it anyway.. It is also cold and crisp out..
How are you all doing? 
Our house is almost all decorated.
Thank the good Lord..
It should be finished tomorrow hopefully..

Here is a little project that I thought you might like..
The idea is on PINTEREST of course.. smile..
They had used a chair but we have a bench in the front foyer that we painted black awhile ago.. So.. when I was decorating in there I remembered this pin and thought that perhaps it would work on the bench.. 
So ... tada..... 
I just drew the snowman head on there and painted it in..
The stars are stenciled and the word love is just freehand..
Then a coat of water based sealer... All done..
Not a perfect job by far but still a little change..
The foyer is all done in snowmen that I can leave out until about March... smile .. Then I will just paint the bench all black again..
Or maybe a different color.. Who knows... grin..
Trevor made that bench for me when he was in high school.. He is very creative and loves wood work... the dear lad... smile..
Anyway....
Here is another easy idea that I have done on the top of the fridge for a couple of years now..
These are old mason jars and a depression glass measuring cup with a beater in it ... I just stuffed a couple of sets of lights in the jars and placed a bit of greenery up there..
Very cozy at night...
You could use any kind of clear glass jars...

Terry and I are almost ready for our little Keepers of the Home supper on Saturday.. We bought the groceries today..
We are looking forward to having the girls and their husbands..It is the only time that the men are included... smile..

Thanks for dropping by ...Are you all ready for the big day?  I know you are all busy but I do look forward to hearing from you..
Blessings...
