Beaded Ornament

Yet another great ornament idea from bhg.com . What a great way to use up all of your odds and ends of beads and silver or gold ribbons.


Can't wait to make a few of these and post them for all to see.

Ice Cream Cone Ornament

I know it is too early to think about Christmas, but I have to plan ahead. This adorable ice cream cone ornament was featured on the Better Homes and Garden site. As soon as I saw it, I knew my version was not going to use a paper mache cone. Instead, I am going to find a heavy tan colored piece of cardstock and stamp it with a waffle cone/diamond patterned rubber stamp inked in another shade of brown/tan. When I am done stamping it, I will shape it into a cone. Don't worry, as soon as I make the ornament I will post the how tos, costs, and a list of my supplies.


I will probably also add some tiny beads for sprinkles and maybe a red pompom or bead for a cherry on top.

Quick and Easy Embellished Christmas Tree Ornaments

I am participating in a kids holiday bazaar this December and have been searching for some quick, easy, and inexpensive ideas. All products we sell at the bazaar have to be homemade and sold for under $5 so the kids can purchase gifts for their parents, teachers, grandparents, siblings, and friends. This ornament is made with colored glass ornaments, glue, glitter, and gems.

Once I have my finished ornaments together, I will share them on the blog for everyone to see along with the breakdown of the costs.
