30 Days of Gift Making

Welcome to the 17th Day of the
30 Days of Gift Making
Hosted by the Talent Jill @The Scrapoholic

If you been following along you have come from
the talented

I really have enjoyed following along on this hop
 and getting great ideas for gift giving...
I decided to do one of my favorite gifts to give.
 This really easy to make
Lighted Pine Cone Christmas Basket


Now this basket is really easy to do all you
need is the following supplies...

Basket
Pine Floral Picks
Pine Cones Picks
Christmas Lights
Green Floral Foam
Glue Gun



Here is a close up of the pine cones and
 pine floral picks just poke them down into the basket into the Green Floral Foam...
You can glue your picks in the floral foam if you wish
I just made sure the Floral Foam was glued down into the bottom of my basket.
I used color lights to brighten things up at nighttime so this basket can be enjoyed all day
and into the evening...



This basket is easy and quick to do, you can make it in all sizes and even use them for center pieces on the dinner table... they make great hostess gifts too...
Make up a few small ones and keep them around the house to grab for that dinner invite you gotten.
Your hostess will be so happy with your thoughtfulness

Now the next stop is on this wonderful
30 Days of Gift Giving is

I hope you have enjoyed your stop today
as much as I did making this
Lighted Christmas Pine cone basket for you...
