VIDEO: Advent Calendar and Mini Mirror Garland

Today I offer you not ONE crafty idea, but TWO! And on video so you can see the step-by-step action!

Last month I taped 10 new episodes for "Crafting With the Chica" for LifetimeTV.com. And two of them are up today for your viewing pleasure. Hope you like them!



1. Awesome Advent Calendar.
This is a fun way to treat your kids to daily doses of love and smiles. I like to use these little flower pots because they hold so much, and you can choose to remove them and use them in your garden, or keep the calendar intact for next year (just add new paper to the tops of them).

2. Mini Mirror Garland
This is a super easy project that is short on time, but long on sparkle. You can hang these from your tree, front or back porch, or use them to drape over dressers or table tops. You can even make a bunch of strands and hang them from the ceilings for a swanky disco effect!

I might just have to try this. I've been listening to the past Crafty Chica Podcasts. Good Stuff. I'm loving the story about a certain seed and one fateful nostril. I laughed out loud in my cubicle. I'm a designer at a certain soda company.
