homemade ornaments

November 15, 2010 By admin 22 Comments

last weekend we got started on our homemade christmas tree ornaments.

i didn’t realize how much fun this would be.

i think we will make a tradition out of it, make a new ornament every year!

since emory is still young we kept them simple.

we made dried oranges.

fabric birds from left over fabric we had.

and emory’s favorite, glitter pinecones.

we spent an hour outside collecting the pinecones, this is very exciting for a two year old.

emory applied the glue,

and i added the glitter.

our tree is still looking sparse.

i think we are going to add popcorn strings this week, back to the basics!

also, i am 5 followers away from 100, how exciting!

i love getting new followers.

isn’t the blogging world funny, comments and followers make my day!
