I vow never to start my Christmas preparations until December ... so, since it is December 1st, let the countdown begin!
Every year for the last six years I have picked out a pattern and spent the month making ornaments. I make them for my tree, to give to co-workers, and to use as decorations on presents.
I love unpacking my decorations every year and rediscovering them. Here are some of my favorites. I usually crochet them in cotton thread, use a fabric stiffener, and then use glitter spray to add a little sparkle.
Anyone have any ideas for this year?

These are lovely. I never have the patience to do snowflakes. Thanks so much for adding your project to Thrifty Thursdays!
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable! I crochet too but I've never ventured into such thin materials. I bet a tree with white lights covered with these ornaments would be so adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love these ones too. But can you provide a pattern for them and add the link. Thanks Cya
ReplyDeleteGreat suggestion Cya! I have added the links to the patterns that are available under the photo. Let me know how you make out with them :)
ReplyDeletethese are amazing. We had some like this when I was a kid that my great grandma had made. I should make some of these, beautiful!
