I got the beads and cute mini bells from Amazon. Terra Cotta pot wind chimes are a fun and easy craft. Terra Cotta Pot Wind Continue reading...

DIY Snowflake Wood Slice Ornaments
This post contains Amazon affiliate links. This year, I chose to put up a beautiful rustic minimal Christmas tree. The tree is 6 feet high and just 2 feet wide, so it is the perfect size for displaying in my living room's bay window.

In all, I think I only spent about $20 decorating the tree. (That's a small budget!) One of the elements I made for the tree are inexpensive wood slice snowflake ornaments painted with a muted green and blue. I Continue reading...
