Yes, indeed things are starting look quite festive around here, right? And at long last I can share with you this really great Hanukkah DIY tablecloth that is really so simple to make, and the results are truly fun and fabulous. In fact I'd recommend getting enough supplies so that you make quite a few of these, they would make perfect Hanukkah gifts! And if you are a sewer, you could use this idea to make fabric with which to sew up some fun gifts for Hanuukah like pouches, pillow covers, napkins, table runners, you name it!
In true CJM style I actually raided my linen closet and used a sheet for this, always preferable to actually buying something, right? It is true, that sheet was part of a set, but no one even noticed that it was missing. So, lets get started, shall we?
You'll Need:
- a white sheet or tablecloth
- spray fabric paint
- freezer paper
- an iron
- a large surface, I used the floor
How To:
So simple, really! Just make some snowflakes from freezer paper, iron them on, and spray your tablecloth! For complete in depth instructions, with photos, check out my post on Houzz.com, and while you are there, could you leave me a little comment, or add it to your ideabooks? I happen to love Houzz, and I think you will too if you aren't familiar with it......so much great inspiration with a setup for saving all your favorites.......Pinterest style, but without all the time zapping distractions that go with saving on Pinterest!
And of course, if you're going to make a fun tablecloth for Hanukkah, why not whip up some perler bead hanukkah cookies as well? A fun craft to do during hanukkah, as well as a great craft activity to set up for little visitors, enjoy! And for those of you who are actually paying attention, yes I did show a teazer for this tablecloth last year when I posted the idea for the hama bead hanukkah craft, but the project didn't quite make it in time through the editing process over at Houzz.com to get featured, so it was saved for this year, and I can't say that I'm complaining as some new projects to post right about now suits me just fine!
