Crafty Inspiration for Chritsmas :)))

 CG projects...Christmas looks...2021

It is joyful time of the year.  Preparations for Christmas are underway. Also season for gifting your loved one's. A well wrapped presents makes gifting more meaningful  & delightful.

Year before last for do it yourself project  I did cake cups tiny X'mas trees and last year it was foliage wreaths to adorn the doors. This year it is easy to do gift wrapping for chocolates, cookies and candies, & weightless tiny gifts with butter paper bags. Used butter paper bags and water colored them with adorable Christmas sketches like the deer, X'mas trees, hanging holly bunch and gift box image. 

A few simple creative elements make a statement also gives the satisfaction of creating something special for friends and family. Lets give personal touches and celebrate in style-----in your style. 

Introducing children to this creative work is fun and a child would love to see his/her creativity as a part in celebration like Christmas.

200th post at Crystal Grandeur!

This is my 200th post at Crystal Grandeur!  As a profound blogger it is a moment of joy for me as well.   It has been a wonderful journey all along.  Crystal Grandeur blossomed in November 2011 with Diwali & Christmas decors and it is my small world where my imagination and creations comes to reality.  I admire some of the blogs crossing 400+ posts. I appreciate and thank them for influencing others to do the same.  Speaking of my love for decors and styling I enjoy exploring different aesthetics and incorporate them in my decors and tablescapes.

Receiving appreciation for your creation in the form of comments always touches ones heart. (Sharing some of my past posts sweet comments posted by dear readers from across...
