Well I have some good news to report today. Our biggest flood threat is officially no longer! I haven’t unpacked my house yet, but I felt so relieved I ran out and got a Christmas tree today! I may look like I’m moving with Christmas remnants still up but by golly, I’m just grateful to have a dry house and that’s really all that matters!
But I did manage to share 1 project this week that I think turned out pretty cute…
Vintage Sled Christmas sign by Funky Junk
I decorate with vintage sleds every Christmas but never thought to turn one into a sign… until now! Thanks to Carlene from Organized Clutter, she suggested I come up with this stencil idea, so I made two! One for small sleds and one for tall toboggans!
See what Carlene did with this same design HERE using a toolbox! Isn’t it adorable?!
So over the weekend we are calling for snow! Hopefully that will motivate me even more to get going on the decor while I slowly put the house away again.
Now let’s check out the inspiring upcycled projects you brought over during last week’s party… goodness they are good!

I’m so glad to hear your house stayed dry! Please say my favorite shed survived the floods? Thank you so much for featuring my recycled ornaments, I’m honored to be included among the incredibly creative features this week. I have nothing new to share this week because I spent a lot of time with the grandbabies this week.
So glad you’re in a better situation with the flood waters, Donna! What a relief. Thanks for faithfully hosting, even though your life has been seriously upended! I hope you’ll get to enjoy the holiday season now, and be creative.
Thanks for the feature on my cutting board riser project! I love your sled! Such a great idea to add the old wood.
All such great ideas, and the new sled stencil! It’s perfect! Seems obvious, now that is made, lol.
Now I need a sled collection. 🙂
