Christmas Tree Card Hanger

Christmas is on its way and a DIY Christmas card holder was in order. 



Using the following you too can create a cute and easy-peasy project to use or to gift.

Wood and Chicken Wire Tree  
Dixie Belle Chalk Paint in Fluff  
Dixie Belle Glaze in Gold  
Dixie Belle Best Dang Wax in Clear  
Tiny Cute Clothespins

I  taped off the chickenwire, painted the wood portions of the tree with the Fluff paint, and let dry.



Then I lightly sanded-down the small bits of wood that swelled and splintered from the paint and added some gold glaze.



After the glaze dried I used a soft cloth to rub on the clear wax in a small layer and after letting it set for an hour I came back and buffed it with the same cloth.


Such an easy project with a cute utilization.

There is so much more you could add yourself to personalize it. Let us know what you create!
Ciao for now,
