Yes, it is Thanksgiving weekend here is the USA! So in addition to the Christmas Collage Sheet Sale I’ve added a store-wide coupon sale! And there are new Christmas-themed miniatures and an adorable Happy Holidays Room Box (by Design Team Member Shannon Cooper) to get you in the holiday mood.

Save an EXTRA 15% off the ENTIRE SITE! That’s 15% above current sale prices! Even if the item is already marked down as a clearance item or is one of the new items below!

Use Promo Code: BF2022 when checking out.

No minimum purchase required (excludes gift certificates/cards, shipping, taxes). May not be combined with another discount code. But it does cover things like monthly kits (which rarely go on sale).

BOTH the coupon discount AND the collage sheet sale end at midnight (PST) WEDNESDAY NIGHT, November 30, 2022!

 
Happy Holidays Room Box by Design Team Member Shannon Cooper

Wow! This is so beautiful! Shannon made the fireplace from the Fireplace Facade and a Deep Open Front 4.5 x 5.5 Shadowbox (and made that lovely garland decorating the mantelpiece, too)!

Here’s some text from Shannon’s blog post to get us started:

It is time to get ready for Christmas! I usually start hauling out the colossal collection of holiday decorations directly after Thanksgiving, mostly because it takes a solid week of deciding what items are going to be used, and where are they going to be placed, and…Jiminy Christmas, this year I’m demanding that the Harry Potter tree get placed in front of the window!

In preparation for the whole-house decorating, I decided to spend a little time making a 1:12 scale Christmas room box complete with a cozy fireplace. And a cat. Can’t forget the cat.

The fireplace is a Deep Open Front 4.5 x 5.5 Shadowbox with a Fireplace Facade glued to the front. I added thin strips of lightweight card along the top, apron, bottom, and around the surround, then made a mantel from a rectangle of thin basswood. The inside (which was done before the front was glued on) is Brick Wall Scrapbook Paper and an old pebble-y paper that has been in the stash for eons. I painted the fireplace a nice pale eggnog color before adding glowing embers and a sprinkling of actual ash from our fire pit.

This is such a great project, Shannon! I love the colors and the whole vintage Christmas feeling!

Note: Shannon also added a mini-tutorial for making the garland on her blog post!

Go visit Shannon’s blog post for more photos and that tutorial! Here’s her supply list. And read on, as there are tons of Christmas treats still below!

Now don’t forget: use Promo Code: BF2022 when checking out for 15% off everything! Ends Wednesday night!
