Christmas crafts

I love my real tree and how it smells in my house. It’s my first tree in my first house and it’s a good memory to remember.

Since tree ornaments out there are largely expensive and boring, I decided to put my stash of craft possesions to good use by creating my own ornaments.

Original ribbon left over from my wedding.

Equipment needed. I think the bead finishes off the look better so that it won’t look so raw. And the metal wire I use is thinner than nylon string, so it’d give a more floating effect to the ornament.

String the wire through the flower, and tie off with knots below and above the bead with pliers.

Voila! Finished product. You can add glitter to it for more bling too!

Last look hanging on the tree. Looks like a snowflake!
