And We Have Ornaments!
We did it, I survived and have some really cute, "green" ornaments to boot. I didn't even have to candy bribe myself. Most of you know that I am NOT a planner so I really wasn't completely sure what we were going to do this morning. I just knew I couldn't spend any money so I had to use whatever we had. I went searching through crafting stashes and found some wooden photo ornaments that I bought last year and we never painted as well as some I had painted and never put photos in. I found a bag of previous year's Christmas cards, some circles I had cut out of card stock a few years ago for a project, and some ribbon. While the kids painted the wooden ornaments I traced and cut out Christmas trees, candy canes, bells, and candles from cereal boxes. Then they painted and glittered those. After that messy project was done I gave them the circles and the old Christmas cards and they cut out pictures from the cards and glued the onto the circles. A few hole punches and ribbons later and we have ornaments!
