Even though we sign up for this swap months ago, the time always flies by and after a little procrastination and hurried work, we all pull through with some great ornaments. Most are homemade, but we also have those who for whatever reason, aren't able to make them and buy them instead. We love them all the same, so we accept with open arms. Here are the wrapped packages I received late last week.
I turned on some Christmas music in the background and we all unwrapped them one by one and had fun discussing how each project was made and shared what we liked about each one. Here are the awesome ornaments I received this year.
This last ornament didn't survive Santa's flight, but it was a hand painted glass bulb with Jingle Bells inside. We all talked about transferring the bells to another glass ornament, but regardless I thought her paperclip angels were just as crafty. Super and easy to do with kids for a project!
I didn't take photos of my ornaments, before mailing them, but others post pics of their ornaments, I'll be sure to copy of a photo of my ornaments and add them here. I made 2 different ornaments. One with wired ribbon and one was a washer ornament.
Great pictures. I am so sad mine died but was afraid of that. i had such a hard time finding supplies for all my other ideas I had before that one. I will be better prepared next year :)Great picts. I has such a good time.
