Ho Ho Ho! Free Christmas Printable
Need a little last minute Christmas decor? Here's a little something I threw together today that you can print off and have on your walls in minutes. I had a stack of cheap-o 5x7 frames that I had picked up for free from a church swap thing. (Friends, here's a little pro tip I learned from Jim Halpert: When someone asks you if you want a free frame, the answer is always, "Absolutely I do.") Anyway, I gave my frames a quick couple of coats of white spray paint and stuck my little HO HO HO printables (okay, it's really just a "HO" printable) in them. If you want to make some for yourself, maybe you have some 5x7 frames laying around too. Or, if not, I'm SURE your closest thrift store does. Or, even better, stick them up on your walls with a little washi tape. UPDATE: ... [Read More]
