Glass Block #2

Hi everyone!!  Don't forget the Fantabulous Cricut Crawl is going on all week!  Make sure to play along and enter to win at FCCB.

Here's another glass block I made for "Deck the Halls".  Yesterday's is for my daughter and this one is in my kitchen.  I LOVE to decorate for Christmas.  And I also love colored lights.  So when I went to Hobby Lobby to get another set, I was thrilled to see that they had a strand of 35 in colored.  It was perfect for this project.  Now, they are on green wires, where the white one have white cords which you can't see.  But, since I made a tree, I thought it would be o.k.

I used Winter Frolic for the tree and ornaments and cut them at 4 inches.  I also cut out extra ornaments to put around the tree.  The ribbon was also purchased at Hobby Lobby.  I just love this one lit up!!  These are so easy to make so I hope you try it and let me know so I can visit your blogs to see :)

Don't forget to enter for my blog candy here.  I'm so close to 400 followers so I just might have to find something else to give away too!!!
