​This holly fabric has been waiting in my stash for just the right table runner pattern. I came across the easiest method for making one in a tutorial from Alanda Craft. I ​followed the “10 Minute Table Runner” tutorial details and added my own flair.

​The plaid fabric is flannel. The holly is embroidered woven/cotten fabric I found as a remnant. Both are from Joann. The lace came on my witch hat. I used a scrap of fabric to create the bat appliqués and did the same for the holly I added to the bats. 

I made some nerdy napkins about the same time I cut these fabrics out. My husband and I have sued those napkins every day over the past few years, so I figured it was time to finish these Christmas napkins, 

I am in awe of this project. I usually avoid ones like this because they scare me. But I just went for it because I REALLY wanted a tree skirt with this cookie fabric! I let go of the outcome and the outcome is amazing. 

I picked up this sign at Walmart for about $5 for another project, then this idea came to me. So I painted the sign and cut the graphics out with my Cricut Maker. I used permanent outdoor vinyl. Outdoor isn’t necessary, but it is what I had on hand.
