Thanksgiving Mini Pallet Art

November 5, 2014 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

I love decorating for Thanksgiving but often find I just don’t have the time to do a lot of decoration changes.  So, I typically focus on decorating the house for fall and then add a few Thanksgiving specific touches around the house as the holiday gets closer.  This year, I created some Thanksgiving mini pallet art to display on my mantle. It is the perfect last minute craft to toss up for Thanksgiving since it takes only a few supplies and almost no time to complete.

Slow Cooker Turkey Breast

October 27, 2014 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

This is the easiest Slow Cooker Turkey Breast recipe ever! It produces a perfectly cooked and juicy tender turkey breast every time!

For several years, Mathlete and I would have a small Thanksgiving at home before heading off to celebrate with family the next day. Of course, with only a few people, it didn’t make much sense to cook a huge turkey.

Guest Blogger: Thanksgiving Wine Glass Charms

November 25, 2013 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

This holiday season, I am giving you the gift of new blogs to read!  Yep, throughout the holiday season, I will have guest bloggers come here and share a little bit of their awesomeness so you will have fun new blogs to read for the new year.  Today, we start with our first guest blogger, Katie!

**********************************************************

Hello Just Us Four readers! I’m Katie from Snap-On Buttons and I am so pleased to be a guest blogger! Thanksgiving is perhaps my favorite holiday and if your like me, there’s always a full house. I’m here to show you how to make these super cute Thanksgiving wine glass charms.

I hate always having to second guess where I put down my drink at parties. That’s where wine glass charms come in handy. Using my Silhouette Cameo, I cut out charms using their Thanksgiving charms. I really liked these charms because their subtle and inexpensive.

 I cut out the same charms in different card stock colors, so guests have more options and diversity among the charms.

To make the rings for the wine charms, I used gold wire since it matches my Thanksgiving decor the best. However, it could easily be customized to match yours as well. Using wire cutters, I cut wire about 2 inches long and wrapped it around a soda bottle cap.

Slip the charm onto the wire and you have a super cute, easy, and practical craft for Thanksgiving!

I wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season! I hope you’ll stop by Snap-on Buttons soon to see what I’ve been up to!

Those charms are super cute! I know I always hate losing my glass at parties too so this is definitely an idea I would use.  Thanks so much Katie!

Be sure to visit Katie and see all the other awesome ideas she has to share!

As you are preparing for Thanksgiving, I’m sure you throwing around ideas of what to have for dessert and the standard apple pie or pumpkin pie comes to mind.  We’ve even been known to do a little early Christmas baking and have cookies for our Thanksgiving dessert.  How about breaking from the norm a little bit and doing pumpkin cheesecake bites instead?  They are single serving making them easy for a dessert table and on your waistline on a day full of eating.
