Christmas Ornament #7 Yarn Ball

I had an abundant amount of Styrofoam balls lying around and many scraps of yarn and felt, so I decided to make ornaments with them.

I used:

• Styrofoam balls
• Green and Red felt
• Red and White yarn
• Hot Glue
• Ribbon

Wrapped the ball with my yarn bits (ran out of red, so used white on top) and then cut out my holly. Hot glued the bits together and TA DA! Ornament for the tree.

I will be making a lot of these I think. I have a giant bag of bits of yarn from the thrift store and I had to use it.

Speaking of thrift stores, I will post my latest finds from Value Village later.

Personalized Christmas Stockings

Finished them last night after I decorated our Christmas tree. Each stocking was like $2.00 from the mega walmart in Chilliwack. They were plain red felt with the white trim. I had just got 2 big bags of felt at the thrift store for $2.00

This craft was pretty cheap even if you dont have thrift store felt. I used 2 sheets, one red and one white. Have lots of red leftover.

So I printed some winter like animals and traced their silhouettes and did some fine cutting. Tony has a whiskey jack, I have the reindeer and Sadie (nicknamed bunny girl by Grandma) has a hare.

They are hanging by the kitchen with care.

Christmas Wreath

There, its done. I'm so thankful that I found the hot glue, otherwise it would drive me crazy not being able to finish it (especially when everything was done, just needed assembly). Its kinda simple, and just has Christmas colours in it. I will get a picture of it on our front door when I get something to hang it with.
