Christmas Crafts

It probably seems a little early to start thinking about Christmas crafts, but it really depends on just how intricate you are thinking about getting with your holiday crafts.

Since I'm thinking about crafting all year round, I like to be on the look out for vintage Christmas decorations that I can pick up throughout the year. Then I just keep my vintage Christmas crafts goodies in a plastic bin (with a cover) until it is time to pull it out and think about what kinds of crafting I want to be working on.

Am I making presents or am I making decorations for the house? Do I want to design a collage Christmas wreath? That could be something special.

I also like to keep holiday craft supplies around for the kids to play with. Sometimes they will decide to decorate and make ornaments for the tree!
