Charcuterie Board Ideas for Your Holiday Party

Charcuterie boards are beautiful and simply easy to make. You can have a variety of colors, textures, and ingredients that will WOW your guests.

Charcuterie means a delicatessen specializing in dressed meats and meat dishes. I've heard them called grazing boards which really, that's what they are. You stand around the board and just pick up and eat.

Here are some beautiful and tasty charcuterie boards that I hope will inspire you to make one.

Let's start off the day with a breakfast board. I love breakfast food: pancakes, waffles, bacon, sausages, eggs, and pastries. You can make this board fancy-looking because let's face it, breakfast foods aren't much to look at. But this breakfast board is definitely inviting.

Christmas or Winter Gnome Craft Project with Lights

We had so much fun making these little Winter Gnomes, that we thought we'd share the craft with you. Maybe you can take it and use your imagination and make whatever gnome your heart desires.

There are many holidays throughout the year to make a gnome for Valentine's Day, St.Patrick's Day, July 4th, Halloween, and Thanksgiving.

Here's all you need:

• Pint jar with lid
• Paint that will adhere to the glass
• Small paint brush
• Glue gun and glue sticks
• Fabric, cotton will work best
• Rick rack
• Felt
• White faux fur
• Plastic small snowflake or what embellishment you would like to use, depends on the theme of the gnome
• Wood bead with a flat side
• Styrofoam ball, pompom, cotton ball whatever you would like for the snowball
• Pink powder for the nose
• Qtip or brush to apply the powder
• White paint or marker
• LED lights

Step-by-step instructions:

Paint your pint jar with white paint, preferably for glass, then sprinkle white glitter all over the jar. Make sure you let it sit and dry before moving on to the next step. I also suggest you seal it because the glitter comes off rather easily and who likes glitter everywhere? Not me!

Cut your fabric into a triangle shape, and make sure the bottom is curved, it will go on the jar lid easier. Then hot glue the rick rack onto the bottom of the fabric.

Hot glue the fabric to the lid and overlap the fabric.

Glue the fabric up the middle to make the hat.

Cut the arm pieces out of the fabric and the mittens out of felt. Then glue the mittens to the back side of the arm fabric. 

Fold and glue both sides to make the arms.

Would you like to help us do reviews? Here's a link to our 

wishlist on Amazon.com. We have items starting as low as $6. 

****************************************************************************

Cut a piece of rick rack out for the trim and hot glue them.

Glue the arms to the sides of the jar.

Cut a piece of faux fur and glue it to the jar. Make sure it's under the lip of the jar because you will have to screw the top on.

Cut out a heart shape for the feet and glue it to the bottom of the jar.

Pull back the fur to make a little area to glue the wood nose on. 

Glue the nose.

Use the powder to make the nose rosey on one side.

Use the white paint or maker to make three dots on the side of the rosey nose.

Fold over the hat and glue the snowflake onto the top of the hat. 

Glue the snowball onto the felt hand.

Turn the lights on and stick them in the jar. Close the lid on the gnome. 

VOILA! You've created a Winter Gnome. How fun is that? 

Watch him glow in the night. Cute little gnome.

You will find us making the craft here on our Youtube Channel at around 16:00 minutes. We had a lot of laughs with Rhonda making the gnome, she's a good sport. Her poor fingers. 🤣

Or you can take a look at the tutorial I made, whichever you choose I hope you enjoy the effort.

Are you a crafty person? Have you made anything like these gnomes? We'd love to hear from you in the comments below.

Happy holidays!
