Santa Hand Towel

Decorate your kitchen and bath with some of the Santa hand towels. I saw this idea at Life in Perfect Harmony. There isn't a tutorial, but I think it would be easy to recreate. See her other Christmas decor ideas HERE.
You could also put these easy Santa blocks around your house. Made by Little Birdie Secrets, the simple directions are found HERE.

As I was typing, I also wondered if you could make Santa out of a lightswitch? I will have to try this one!

Maternity Pants Skirt

While They Slept turned her maternity jeans into a darling skirt and shirt. I love this skirt because it is flat in the front and gathered in the back. To see the front and back of the skirt and to see how this outfit was made, go HERE. If you don't have maternity pants, I'm sure you could make this with other materials. Super cute!!!

Drop Cloth Christmas

I've seen all sorts of things made from drop cloths. Window treatments, chair covers, skirts! What about having a drop cloth Christmas? What can you make? Here's two ideas!!!

A tree skirt with ruffles would be a great choice to make from a drop cloth. Shanty2Chic made this one HERE.

With the left over drop cloth, you could make a stocking or two! This one is from Shanty2Chic again. Make it by following the tutorial found HERE.
