Yes, I know it’s still early but I really wanted to try this.I think I saw something like this in a store window, it just wasn’t Christmas themed.

The kids bought me a beautiful cake plate for Mother’s Day probably almost 20 years ago and I thought it was perfect for this craft!

Here is what I started with. 

I just used batting because it’s fluffier. 
I cut out a circle to fit the cake plate and laid it on the base.

I arranged, and yes rearranged, the village items I bought until I found a scene I liked.

Then I used two sided tape to adhere them to the cake plate base.
I sprinkled a few sparkles over the scene, then put the lid back on. 

And to finish it off, I added a nice bow to the ball at the top, the handle!
