If malls full of giddy holiday shoppers and grumpy people shoving you aside to grab whatever you were looking at is not your jam, why not buy into a more primitive style of Christmas decorating? There's a whole lot less in the way of materials to buy, and it will appeal to those of us that prefer simplicity and the days of yore. Best of all, no plastic or toxic waste to get rid of at the beginning of the new year.

Get some ideas and inspiration for your primitive christmas decor and simplify the holidays. Speaking of which, this is the last newsletter before the Christmas break, so all the best to you and yours. Keep it simple and rustic, whatever you do!

If you are busy building some rustic crafts we would love to see them; go to the page linked here - scroll to the bottom to see where to share your story and add some pictures.

Join the Rustic And Succulents Group to share your ideas and inspiration, we'd love to have you!

When you've built something you're proud of, brag it up! Most groups love to hear what others have been doing, so share your pictures on there with a write up on the project.

Make sure you get signed up for notifications on Blue Fox Rustic on Facebook to stay in touch, lots of projects are happening here in our new locale.

Don't forget; if you have questions about any rustic craft that I might be able to help you with, ask away! Reply to this email, or use the contact link in the footer of every page on this site.
