Visions of Sugarplums 2015...Day 2 of 3!



Hello there, friends!

Its day 2 for the Visions of Sugarplums Hop!  It's time for more Christmas fun!  Lori of Chouxchoux Paper Art is hosting the Visions of Sugarplums Blog Hop!  Lots of fun with prizes!  And, a challenge(Christmas/Winter) with any project that fits the theme can be linked to Lori's blog mentioned above!  The challenge will end December 20th.  And, a randomly selected winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!  Come and check it out!
 
Here is my second Christmas project that I created for the hop...
 
 
 
I started with a glass container and sprayed it with glitter on the inside and outside.  Iridescent snow flakes were placed on the bottom.  The church is an ornament, and I placed a star above the circular window and blue gems around the other windows.  Large snowflakes were placed on the sides and trims around the top.  Here are a couple more views...
 

 
The church lights up as you can see through the windows!  And, one more view of the trims along the top...
 
 
 
 
  Please visit the list below to see what amazing projects these talented ladies created!

  17. Oh my...were you in Michaels this weekend?? I just bought a little house and some of those cute little trees! I am afraid to start though...if mine turns out half as good as yours I'll be happy....how did you get the church to light up?

  18. This is a beautiful Christmas decoration and definitely something I could put together.
    How SPECIAL that the church lights up. Since I didn't see any wires, I am assuming you bought it that way.

    Thanks for sharing.

  21. What the cuteness!!! When I lived in Germany and tried to describe Winter there to people, I would tell them it was like being in a snow globe; especially if you were out in the towns shopping for Christmas. NOW I'm gonna tell them it's like being in Maria's glass jar! This is beautiful and you've captured the essence of winter and wonder and praise all in one! Fantastic make. :)
