I love decorating for Thanksgiving but often find I just don’t have the time to do a lot of decoration changes. So, I typically focus on decorating the house for fall and then add a few Thanksgiving specific touches around the house as the holiday gets closer. This year, I created some Thanksgiving mini pallet art to display on my mantle. It is the perfect last minute craft to toss up for Thanksgiving since it takes only a few supplies and almost no time to complete.
Guest Blogger: Thanksgiving Wine Glass Charms
This holiday season, I am giving you the gift of new blogs to read! Yep, throughout the holiday season, I will have guest bloggers come here and share a little bit of their awesomeness so you will have fun new blogs to read for the new year. Today, we start with our first guest blogger, Katie!

Hello Just Us Four readers! I’m Katie from Snap-On Buttons and I am so pleased to be a guest blogger! Thanksgiving is perhaps my favorite holiday and if your like me, there’s always a full house. I’m here to show you how to make these super cute Thanksgiving wine glass charms.
I hate always having to second guess where I put down my drink at parties. That’s where wine glass charms come in handy. Using my Silhouette Cameo, I cut out charms using their Thanksgiving charms. I really liked these charms because their subtle and inexpensive.
I cut out the same charms in different card stock colors, so guests have more options and diversity among the charms.
To make the rings for the wine charms, I used gold wire since it matches my Thanksgiving decor the best. However, it could easily be customized to match yours as well. Using wire cutters, I cut wire about 2 inches long and wrapped it around a soda bottle cap.
Slip the charm onto the wire and you have a super cute, easy, and practical craft for Thanksgiving!
I wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season! I hope you’ll stop by Snap-on Buttons soon to see what I’ve been up to!
