Quilting to me:

"In this crazy fast and furious world we live in I believe it is our responsibility to take time for ourselves, even if it is once a week or month. Doing what you love is one way slow the craziness down. I like to think I'm doing what I love."

Countdown to Christmas
From Pinwheel Quilting

12 Days til Christmas
How about a quick and easy Christmas decor.
Something to add to your existing decor.  These
trees are colorful and nice for Christmas. 

Needed:
Styrofoam cone (different sizes)
Glitter (colors for your decor)
Candle holders (can be different heights)
Spray Adhesive
Glue

First take the cone with the bottom of the cone
on the top of the candle holder and twist.  This 
will make a place to sit your cone on when ready 
to glue it to the candle holder.

Lay out newspaper or wax paper, a big enough
pieceto pour your glitter out on.  Spray with the
spray adhesive.  Now pour or roll cone in the
glitter.  You can do this in layers, after your first 
roll in the glitter, spray cone again and add more
glitter.  Repeat until you have enough glitter to
your liking.  Let sit to dry.  After letting the cone
dry put glue on the top of the candle holder and
sit the cone on top.  You can also put alittle glue
on the cone before sitting it onto the candle
holder.  Hold for a few minutes until the glue
dry enough to hold cone in place.  Let sit to dry.

Now place your trees with your Christmas decor. 
On a mantle or in a table centerpiece.

Enjoy!
Happy Holidays,
Carol
