Let the Christmas Decorating Begin

 
 
Hi all!
As you can see, I am finally beginning my Christmas decorating. I put it off, thinking I had plenty of time. But I received a call from my oldest son this morning letting me know that they will be arriving next week. EEK! This is a week earlier than we had originally planned. So now I have a fire lit under me and I'm move'in fast ladies.
 
 
No doubt you are wondering why, considering all that I have to get done, that I am wasting time decorating a light with salt shakers.....
It was just a fresh idea I had (believe me I haven't had any of these in a long while) so I had to go with it.
 
I have also made up a hot chocolate bar for the grandchildren. If you'd like to see it you will find it on my other blog here. It was a quick and easy project and cute  if I may say so myself.

    There's nothing like a deadline to get moving! I have a few of them myself. So why am I reading blogs, I ask myself. Sigh. Cute and creative idea with the salt shakers.

    When push comes to shove, right? LOL The pressure is on and you'll get what needs to be done, done in time. I love the idea of the crystal salt shakers hanging from your chandelier! Fun. Enjoy the moments ahead.

    I love how the shakers sparkle under the light, very pretty! Why not use them as ornaments?
