Twinkle Lights!

SO sorry about the 2 month hiatus! I love my job but between that, my boys and myself, I stay super busy! I did some fun projects over Thanksgiving that I wanted to share...
This is my favorite! All you do is get a string of Christmas lights and ribbon. I used a short line with 35 lights and ribbon is almost always half off at hobby lobby!
 The first steps are very important. Put in a Christmas movie, get a snack and some comfy clothes on. 
Now figure out how long you want your ribbons to be, cut, and start tying. 
On the green and teal line I tied a single knot. On the red and green line I did double knot. It's totally up to you.
For some reason I had a little pile of burned out Christmas lights and I saw the cutest idea on Pinterest... I painted on my homemade Mod Podge
 (love this stuff) and then just sprinkled on some glitter, let them dry 
and then put them in a bowl.

 So simple, so cute.
And last I did a little garland out of pom poms...
