Here's another great (great=cheap) quick project that can easily be transformed for each holiday.
I found these beauties at our local consignment shop for a whopping total of $3.50.
I started by pulling the legs off of the cheese plate with a pair of needle nosed pliers (sounds painful, I know)
Then I painted my mini urn and the cheese plate black and sanded them to give them that distressed look that would eventually occur in my house if I didn't start it out like that anyways. Then I glued the two pieces together with Locktite epoxy.
Ready to be stuffed with holiday!
This was our harvest cloche
I spruced it up even more for Christmas. I placed it in a tray (which I already owned) and bunched up some red place mats. Then I wrapped some garland around the bottom and stuck some ornaments inside.
Don't ask me how to pronounce it, but I am linking this little ditty up

Super cute. I especially like the Christmas one that is placed in the tray. Looks so festive.

Great project - I have made a handful of cloches from super great finds at my local Goodwill! I love it when you can make something so great for such a great price.
