Day 42: Santa and Antler Bottle Hats (with free printables)!

Santa and Antler Bottle Hats w/ free printables // thepapermama.com

Day 42 of my 50 DIY Days of Christmas: Santa and Antler Bottle Hats! Do you have a beer or wine connoisseur to buy a gift for? Perfect! Use these Santa and Antler printable bottle hats to spruce up the boring ‘ol beer bottle. This would even work for olive oils, etc.

Just click here and here, then right click + save the printouts. Cut out the hat + antlers. I chose to leave a little bit of yellow outline (it’s easier to cut out). Cut out the white box and fold. Use some heavy duty double sided adhesive to attach to the top of your bottle. Done.

Happy Birthday to my 4-year-old!

Ruari // thepapermama.com

Today my little girl turns 4. I can’t even. Time is flying and my heart… is both happy and a little sad. My baby is turning into a kid. A lady. She’s turning into a human. A friend. Someone that cares and feels and understands. This little creature that started out as a little blip in my belly has transformed  into this amazing person that I’m so happy to have in my life.

Crap, now I’m crying.

Happy 4th birthday to the most amazing human I know!

Joy Glitter Word // thepapermama.com

Day 38 of my 50 DIY Days of Christmas: Joy Glitter Word! Add a little more glitter and sparkle to your home. My “JOY” Glitter Word is lovely and will look so cute in your home. It’s an easy + inexpensive project. You can ALSO attach the words to a globe, if you have one.

Make it:

Joy Glitter Word // thepapermama.com

– Print and cut out my “JOY” letters on heavy cardstock (click on these links and right click + save: “j”, “o”, “y”).

– Apply a layer of Mod Podge, followed by glitter. Let dry completely (about 1 – 2 hours) and add another layer of Mod Podge and glitter. Let dry.

– Optional: Seal the words with a layer of Mod Podge (less glitter will fall off the letters if you do this).

– Hot glue your pom poms for the polka dotted look.

Joy Glitter Word // thepapermama.com

Done! You can set these up on your mantle, or maybe you have a globe you can tape these to? Joy to the world! Get it? Hee. Enjoy!
