Candy Canes



Need some candy canes for your Christmas tree?

If you have a Kinney Drug's store in your area, you can pick up 12 count boxes of candy canes for only 49 cents!

Thrifty Christmas Decorations



Paper snowflakes are at the top of our Christmas decoration list!


Even the older kids love this family Christmas tradition.


You can make simple snowflakes; like the ones above, or get a little fancy; like the ones below.



We hang our snowflakes from the living room ceiling.

Our inside snow storm is always a conversation piece with company!

Popcorn Balls




One of our family's Christmas traditions is making popcorn balls to hang on the tree.

Of course, they don't stay on the tree for long!

Want a quick and easy recipe for popcorn balls?

You know how difficult it is to make Rice Krispie treats?  ;-)

Yup, it's that easy!

Melt butter into a pan, and add marshmallows

Stir in some food coloring just for fun.

Pour over popped popcorn.

Butter hands, and make balls

Wrap in Saran Wrap, put a string around it, and hang on the tree.

See how long it hangs there!
