We agree with Andy Williams that this is indeed “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year.” We all love decking the halls, hosting parties, caroling, cooking and baking, shopping for gifts for friends and family, and anything that has to do with making the holidays merry. Here are some great holiday decorating tips for the whole house. So, gather your family and friends. All of these ideas are family friendly. Plus, they offer you the opportunity for creating a fun night crafting holiday cheer.
Kitchen
Mason Jar Floating Candles

Gingerbread Men Garland
Super cute, easy to make, plus they smell great. This Gingerbread Men garland is a fun group craft.
Cookie Cutter Wreath
Use old cookie cutters or scour the shelves of your favorite second-hand store. You can even use temporary adhesion so that the wreath easily comes apart when you want to make cookies.
Dining Room
Candy Cane Candle Sticks
Use Flameless Candles for this project, and you will add a safe bit of cheer that lasts for hours.
