DIY Easy & Budget Friendly Christmas Decor


I am so excited to share this quick and budget friendly  Christmas project with you guys!


I found these sweet car boxes at Michael's the other day,   but I've also seen some pick up paper bags at the Dollar Tree that would work just as well.     
 The hardest part about this project is deciding where to put them.........they will work anywhere in the house!


I drilled holes in my boxes where the head lights were


I already had some battery operated lights on hand.    Mine are from the wedding isle at Hobby Lobby but the stores are full of them this time of year.        I used scotch tape to secure them in the head light holes.


I just love theses and can't wait to use them in my Christmas vignettes .


Easy as one.............................................two.....................................................three

    These are really cute, and cutting holes in the headlamps is a brilliant idea. I will see if our local Michaels has anything like this.
