Stab small holes appropriately throughout<br />
the canvas. You want this picture to light<br />
up and glow so think about ways to really<br />
make your picture pop!<br />
Use a small pair of scissors to remove any<br />
pieces of hanging canvas, in the event<br />
that the previous step left extra canvas<br />
sticking out.<br />
Lay the string of Christmas lights behind<br />
the canvasses, and match up the lights<br />
with previously punctured holes.<br />
Use duct tape or electrical tape to secure<br />
the strand of Christmas light to the back<br />
of the canvas.<br />
Secure the light plug toward the bottom<br />
of the painting with duct tape or<br />
electrical tape.<br />
Make sure your finished canvas is able<br />
to be positioned, safely, and close to a<br />
power outlet.<br />
Quote of the Day Box/Basket<br />
This gift has always been a big hit on<br />
my holiday gift list. And, it is incredibly<br />
simple, but extremely heartwarming, at<br />
the same time.<br />
Simply attach your favorite quotes to<br />
a small piece of candy. You can also<br />
use prayers, memories, or even trivia<br />
questions, for a slightly less<br />
personal touch.<br />
This truly is the gift that keeps on<br />
giving…literally, each and every day<br />
of the year!<br />
Family and Friends Calendar<br />
Another great idea that continues<br />
to give throughout the year, a<br />
personalized calendar for the<br />
following year is something<br />
everyone needs.<br />
Instead of a random cat, or<br />
common landscape, why not add<br />
a touch of love and appreciation to<br />
the everyday calendar? Whether<br />
you choose to use your favorite<br />
memorable photographs of your<br />
family and friends, or you would<br />
rather use pictures of things they<br />
like (hobbies, interests, vacation<br />
destinations, etc.), a personalized<br />
calendar is a great way to show<br />
any special someone how well you<br />
know them.<br />
