Paint project

I decided to paint some ornaments for a friend's birthday present.

I bought them like this.

Then I painted them.

Then I whitewashed them to tone the color down.

From the depths of the scrap bin.

Look what you can find in the scrap bin, forgotten squares become a baby quilt.

Clothespin snowflakes

 This is what I started with, as well as my hot glue gun and white paint.

The first thing you have to do is pull all the clothespins apart.

 Then you put the clothespins back to back and glue them. Then glued all the pairs to together.

Then you paint them. I then added a hanger.
I made some of these from medium-sized clothespins and they look good too.

More felt Christmas ornaments

A friend and I tackled more felt Christmas tree ornaments.

Here are the materials with started with. The patterned material on the left was taken from Her's scrap bin.

I completed these cute squirrels.

 My friend did these Rudolphs

 I made these sheep.

 My friend did these moose.

 I did these polar bears.

We had lots of fun I think we have enough to finally fill the tree.

Different kind of craft - cookie decorating

A group of girls got together to learn how to decorate cookies with royal icing.

The crafting continues

I made a few more ornaments for my friend. It included felt snowman heads, felt mittens, wire trees, button trees and felt squirrels.
