Happy Saturday! And welcome to my version of the 12 Days of Christmas. I hope you have been following the incredible bloggers and THEIR ideas for the 12 days of Christmas.
I am constantly blown away by their talent and ideas.
Today I am going out on a limb and giving you MY interpretation. What’s that, you say? It’s NOT anything to do with 12 drummers drumming?
You see, I don’t have drum sticks around my home. I don’t own a silhouette cameo, to cut out a drummer boy. BUT, when you have a skewer or chopstick in your hands, don’t you tap them on your table (kind of like you would a drumstick)?
I KNOW, I do!
So this is what I came up with for 12 Drummers Drumming…
To make your own Christmas Tree Door Hanger you will need:
bamboo skewers
fabric covered cardstock
sharp scissors
popsicle stick
1 crystal
hot glue
rick rack or jute for hanging
I started out with a few skewers, and a piece of fabric covered chipboard .
(I had it left over from this project)
With sharp scissors I cut the skewers into graduating larger sizes.
Using hot glue I attached my “drum” sticks to create a tree.
I cut a small piece of popsicle stick to make a trunk.
With the hot glue I adhered the “trunk” and crystal.
No, I didn’t use 12 Drummers Drumming. But I DID use sticks and that counts, right???
I am excited to make more of my Christmas Tree Door Hangers as small gifts for friends.
Don’t you think they would look cute on a present, too??
I have more of my Christmas ideas here, here, and here.
Don’t forget to see ALL 12 days of Christmas and ALL of the unique, creative and Christmas ideas.

A drummer drums with sticks so I think your project does count! This is a cute door hanger for Christmas.
Meegan that is so pretty I love how it can be used as an ornament or an accent piece! Love your interpretation too :)
That’s adorable Meegan!!! and such a cute interpretation of 12 drummers!! :)

That’s darling! What a creative way to incorporate “drumsticks” into your decor. You did a better job than I did of sticking to the theme–11 pipers piping stumped me, so I just went for a general 12-days-of-Christmas theme. :)
It’s been fun to see how everyone has interpreted their themes and yours turned out great, Meegan!
Meegan, I love your interpretation! Using skewers is such a clever idea. And I love all of the other Christmas decor I see in the background. It’s all so beautiful.
Yes sticks count!! And when you get so creative with sticks, they get pinned! Meegan, I always love your projects! Jeanette
Meegan you cracked me up with these chopstick drumsticks. Love the little tree that you created. Very cute.
Soo cute! I am loving seeing everyone’s interpretation. I think this is perfect!

Love it Meegan! Too cute!
Have a great week,
