The first project I would like to share was inspired by old German Putz's, these were little assembled houses from cardboard that were painted and glittered then placed under the Christmas tree. I couldn't find any house shapes I liked but stumbled upon some lighthouse birdhouses ($1.00 section at the craft store) and thought it was a great compliment to the Christmas in July theme. These are not at all difficult to make, though you will be covered in glitter from head to toe, directions are on the SNS website HERE.

Love the little lighthouses...they're a perfect Maryland Christmas ornament!! The lightbulbs are awesome too. I think I may try these with my granddaughters. They love glitter and these would be fun for them to make for "mommy" gifts.
Love the lighthouses - they definitely remind me of old fashioned houses that would be under trees. Nice & simple and perfectly colored to resemble the ones of days gone by!
Angie, your lighthouses are the sweetest, what a wonderful idea for this project, they are so different and adorable. and your light bulps are so pretty ,too.
Hugs,Dorthe

I love the glittered bird house light houses. They are so pretty!
The glittered lightbulbs are a fun idea. It's always so discouraging how many look fine but stop working each season!
Thanks for sharing! :)
Totally awesome. I'm gaining a much greater appreciation for altered art.
Ornaments.. how clever!!
Thanks!

Angie, I'm always happy visiting your blog to see what goodies your imagination has created. What a super idea with the glittered, snowy, birdy lighthouses! LOL Wouldn't they be cute with one of those flameless tea candles on the inside and used in an artistic arrangement on the table? And maybe a paper bird or two or three to bring more joy. Thank you for sharing a great way of recycling those burned out bulbs, too! I'm sad this is your last blog hop with SNS. Thanks for all you have contributed this past year.
Those lighthouse birdhouses are beautiful. Now I just have to find the wooden shapes in one of the four craft stores near me so I can try it too. I love glitter & getting it everywhere is part of the attraction, I think.
Your projects look good enough to eat. I love the light houses. Will look for them in our local craft stores.
TFS, Stephanie K
What cute ornaments, I love the lightbulbs
So creative! Thanks for the inspiration!
Cute! I bet you were too covered head to toe in glitter!
Your lighthouses are darling, but the idea of reusing the bulbs is fabulous. I just may have to copy that. TFS
