Big and Small Pine Holiday DIY

Hello December and friends. I’d like to welcome the season with a beautiful Swedish proverb that goes:.

“Fear less, hope more; eat less, chew more; whine less, breathe more; talk less, say more; hate less, love more; and all good things are yours.” —- it feels like a beautiful way to begin the month!

This year, as much as I love spreading cheer and community, I’m keeping December pure and simple — and very easy. I’m taking a small break from the annual 24 day of Scandinavian Creativity collective calendar but, every one of the past projects from the last 6 years can be found here.(HERE) + (HERE)

HOLIDAY DIY FOR YOU: BIG AND SMALL PINE HOLIDAY DIY

In celebration of old, new, community and natural beauty. I’ve chosen two posts from earlier years that work perfectly for all ages and are a wonderful way to kick off the season. All ages could make these, but, they are two past projects that I’m posting in the spirit of side-by-side creating for you and with kids: BIG AND SMALL HOLIDAY PINE PROJECTS:
