Save this for your day-after-Thanksgiving plans: football, Christmas movies, and getting cozy on the couch with a plate of these cranberry turkey sliders. 🦃🎄🏈 Cranberry Turkey Sliders • 12 Hawaiian rolls • 8 oz. leftover turkey • 8 oz. Swiss cheese • ¾ cup cranberry sauce For the topping: • 1 stick butter, melted • 2 tbsp. spicy brown mustard • 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce • ¼ cup cranberry sauce • 1 tbsp. poppy seeds • ¼ cup dried cranberries 1️⃣ Heat oven to 375°F. Slice the rolls in half horizontally and place the bottom half in a baking dish. 2️⃣ Spread with ¾ cup cranberry sauce, then layer on turkey, Swiss cheese, and the tops of the rolls. 3️⃣ Mix the melted butter, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, remaining ¼ cup cranberry sauce, and poppy seeds. Pour over the sliders. 4️⃣ Sprinkle with dried cranberries and bake for 20–25 minutes, until golden and the cheese is melted.

I took 24 inexpensive white pumpkins and turned them into the prettiest ombré centerpiece using @plaidcrafts Apple Barrel paint from @walmart! 1️⃣ I started by painting the first few pumpkins with Apple Barrel Admiral Blue. 2️⃣ After each batch, I added a little Antique White directly into the same paint mixture to create a slightly lighter shade. I kept repeating the process every few pumpkins until I had a full gradient from deep blue to the prettiest pale blue! 3️⃣ Once everything was dry, I painted all of the stems metallic gold for that little extra sparkle ✨ Then I arranged all 24 pumpkins from darkest to lightest down the center of the table and added candlesticks to finish it off! I LOVE how something as simple as paint completely transformed these basic white pumpkins into a custom centerpiece. And the best part is you could recreate this in ANY color palette to match your own home and fall decor! Comment PUMPKIN and I’ll DM you links to the Plaid supplies I used to make it! 🎨 @plaidcrafts @walmart #ad #MakeItWithWalmart #PlaidCrafts #FallDIY #FallTablescape 11 Sep 2026 SAVE this idea for your Thanksgiving table! 🍂🦃✨ And here’s your reminder to grab those giant foam craft pumpkins when they go on clearance after Halloween! 🎃 I cut the top off the pumpkin first, then used three different shades of metallic gold paint to create a subtle ombré effect and arranged faux fall florals right into the foam. The result looks so much more expensive than it actually is! 😍 This is also the perfect way to give those old, faded craft pumpkins a second life instead of buying new Thanksgiving decor! 💬 Comment PUMPKIN and I’ll send you the supplies to recreate this look! 📌 SAVE this for your Thanksgiving table inspiration, and follow @makingfrugalfun for more budget-friendly holiday decorating, DIYs, and ideas to make everyday moments a little more fun (without spending a fortune)! 🧡 14 Oct 2026 GIANT Christmas lights are BACK! 🎄😍 And this year, Home Depot has two new colors of these jumbo bulbs…orange and light blue! They are SO cute! This is still one of my absolute FAVORITE Christmas DIYs we’ve ever made! If you want a huge holiday statement, this is such a fun project and way easier than it looks. Here’s how we made it: 🎄 The Plug: Spray paint a small trash can green to create the plug. Cover the opening with cardboard and glue on two gold-painted pieces of Styrofoam for the prongs. 🎄 The Cord: Twist two green pool noodles together and secure with zip ties to make the cord. 🎄 The Lights: Place one pool noodle piece between each jumbo bulb and use zip ties to attach everything together. Add extra noodles at the end so the strand hangs down like it’s “unplugged.” 🎄 Putting It Together: Drill two small holes in the bottom of the trash can and zip tie the noodle cord to the plug. 🎄 Hanging: We attached the bulb handles to eye hooks using zip ties. You can also display these in your yard or use appropriate outdoor-rated clips to hang them along your roofline! ❤️ IMPORTANT NOTE: I do NOT recommend nailing into your roof! Our original installation used small wooden blocks attached to an overhang between our house and garage, not directly over our living space, and we sealed the attachment points. There are plenty of ways to recreate this look without putting holes in your roof, and I’d recommend choosing a non-penetrating installation method! These look SO cute during the day and even better all lit up at night! ✨ Comment SUPPLIES and I’ll send you the links! Follow @makingfrugalfun for more fun Christmas DIYs, holiday decorating ideas, and budget-friendly finds! 🎄 10 Nov 2026 Save this fun Christmas gift wrapping idea for your baseball kid! ⚾️🎁 #ad All you need is 2 large bowls, a white plastic tablecloth, red ribbon for the baseball stitching, and some tape and glue dots to hold it all together! Is it a little EXTRA? YES. But it’s so fun! 😂 And of course, I filled it with a new hoodie, shorts, and socks from @baseball_lifestyle101 because if you’ve got a baseball-obsessed kid, you KNOW BL101 is on their Christmas list! 🎄⚾️ Plus, get FREE shipping on orders $150+! 💬 Comment BASEBALL and I’ll send you the link to shop our favorite BL101 gifts! Send this to your favorite baseball mom! ❤️ #BL101Partner 09 Nov 2026 SAVE this DIY if you love OVER THE TOP…but simple 😜 🎄✨ You can actually DRIVE A CAR through these bad boys! 😂 And they’re still one of the easiest, highest-impact Christmas DIYs we’ve ever made! Each arch uses three 10-foot pieces of 3/4-inch PVC pipe, two 3/4-inch PVC lock couplings, and about 300 Christmas lights (one 300-count strand or two 150-count strands). This is definitely a two-person job! One person keeps the lights organized while the other wraps them tightly around the PVC, securing everything with zip ties along the way. Once you’re done wrapping, hammer about 1 foot of a 3-foot piece of 1/2-inch rebar into the ground on each side. Slide the ends of your PVC over the rebar to create your arch! These look absolutely MAGICAL lining a driveway or walkway and instantly turn your yard into a winter wonderland! ✨ 🎄 Comment SUPPLIES and I’ll send you the links! SUPPLIES (per arch): * 3 pieces of 3/4-inch × 10-foot PVC pipe * 2 PVC lock couplings (3/4-inch) * 300 Christmas lights * Zip ties * 2 pieces of 1/2-inch rebar, cut to 3 feet each Let me know if you try this one!

I used lace fabric and Mod Podge Stiffy from @plaidcrafts to create these sweet little Christmas trees! I made two smaller trees and one larger one, then tucked battery-powered warm lights inside for the prettiest little glow through the lace. I styled them with a few inexpensive Christmas village houses for a cozy, vintage-inspired Christmas scene! This is such a simple craft to customize, too! You could use different fabrics, colors, or patterns to make them your own. I just loved the idea of letting the Christmas lights shine through the lace! You can find Mod Podge Stiffy and supplies for this project at Walmart! Comment SUPPLIES and i’ll send you the links.
