Hi friends!! I hope you all are having a wonderful week! Can you believe Thanksgiving is just two short weeks away? This year is flying by!
I really want to get all of my Christmas decor done before Thanksgiving this year. Fingers crossed that I will actually accomplish this goal. I usually have a goal of finishing early, but am usually just finishing up as school gets out for Christmas break.
Today for my DIY, I am sharing a simple star garland that I made in less than an hour.

After the stars have dried, wrap the wire around each star to form a garland

I thought the stars were super cute white but decided to glam them up a bit with a coat of gold spray paint.

I think I am going to use this star garland on my mantel, but for now, until I decorate my mantel, I have it hanging on the pegs in my kitchen
