Inexpensive Craft Project - September poinsettia

Summer is really here, in most parts of the country, which projects makes it a perfect time to work on your Christmas crafts, because it is too hot to go outside.

There are many simple and inexpensive craft can easily and quickly for the Christmas gifts they are. One of my favorites is a basket of poinsettias. This is a quick and easy project that anyone can do!

Can be made available at a cost of baskets each dollar stores for $ 3.00 or less.You will need your hot glue gun, a block of floral foam and several bundles of silk poinsettias. You can always purchase the poinsettias of 99 cents to $ 3.99 per package, depending on the craft shop to buy from them. Need extra green, like Holly. You can use a thread of silk holly, it is necessary that the lengths can be cut. You also need a bag of Spanish moss as a filler. Finally, we will have at least 4-5 meters # 9 Hand, vol. Acan of glitter spray.

Steps to install:

1. Hot glue the Styrofoam block on the bottom of your shopping cart.

2. Cover the foam with Spanish moss.

3. You start your poinsettia after the grapes in the middle of high and low for tapered

the sides.

4. Take A Bow boats leave lon Band tails, that hot glue along the wave

Handle of the basket.

5. Finish by spraying the gloss and baskets around theFlowers.

You can use this agreement as a big or small as you want. I have a great, with the basket is approximately 18 cm in diameter, that I keep on my hearth of the fireplace at Christmas. Small sites can be used for children.

This technique is also good for baskets of white flowers in summer and spring. I also use a lot of pine cones in baskets with these techniques, scattering glass Christmas balls in different places with the cone, so thatan affordable price, very nice.
