I wanted to make a few to bring as hostess gifts for upcoming holiday parties. I like to bring a bottle of wine from the family winery for the host, but this is just an extra to add to the gift.
Easiest DIY ever. I did it while we watched Home Alone this weekend. I love Home Alone around the holidays. It's nice to watch it with all the Christmas lights twinkling and a fire.
Anyway, back to the DIY:
These were 2 bucks at the hardware store for all 8. They have more expensive ones. But I chose these because it was more stone-like, less shiny tile. Plus, they were in the clearance section.
Then I stenciled.
And when I messed up (because I am no Martha), I just painted over it and did a reverse stencil look.
NOT PICTURED (because it's too dang cold outside to be pausing to take action shots): Spray with a clear coat outside to make sure your minutes of hard work stenciling stay put.
I added little felt tips that I already had on hand. But you can get a huge bag at the hardware store for 6 bucks.
And make sure you test them...
They work!
Tie a few up with some twine. And you are finished.
What do you like to bring/get at hostess gifts?
