Tree Decorations & my take on selection boxes

[xrheax]

Hiya!

I finally have pictures of my tree decorations. I made orange slices and bought some cinnamon sticks and other crafty stuff from 'by nicki'. This was my first attempt and my tree looks lovely!







I also made these little boxes. I took some favour boxes that I had left over, covered them with christmas paper (it took ages!) and added 6 little celebrations chocolates. I do like to give sweets for children for christmas but I think selection boxes have too much packaging and it is a waste!




Ahhhh.....look at me posting pictures like a pro!

Ooh very nice

I bet the smell of the orange and cinammon sticks will be lovely.

You've done a really neat job with those boxes, they look good

They are gorgeous and i bet your house smells so Christmassy. Like the selection box idea too.

I like the selection box idea, handy as Mum is diabetic!

The smell must be brilliant and they look beautiful! Just wondered, if you undid one of the favour boxes you'd have your own template and then you can make as many as you like with whatever card you want then. Just a thought
