Homemade Christmas Ornaments
"Family Keepsake Ornaments" Submitted by Dana Fleming, Hot Springs, AR
I love this ornament idea because it is both inexpensive and
a guarantee to be very special to the recipient since it captures that year,
or a past year, in a photograph and reminds us that we should cherish
the gift of family at Christmas.
One ornament is an old photo of my brother and me that I made for my mom, another ornament is for a friend using photocopied picture of her children from their photo Christmas card, the other photo is of the back of the ornament with the quote.
How to make this ornament at home...
Supplies Needed: Mod Podge (can be bought at Wal-Mart or any craft store), Unfinished Paper Mache' Ornament (I purchased mine at Hobby Lobby for 50 cents per ornament), Scrapbooking or Wrapping Paper, Brown Stamp Pad ( optional, for aging paper edges), Color or B&W Copies of Photos (using copies of that year's photo Christmas cards, or old photos of loved ones at Christmas makes it appropriate subject matter), Acrylic Paint ( optional), Ribbon (optional)
