January Ornaments


Originally posted in January 2010.
I am so glad that I forgot to use these clear plastic ornaments in December! They were perfect for making little snowmen to decorate the house with. I saw a little ornament like this on a friend's Christmas tree this year and thought it was so cute. Then, while rummaging around my craft closet, I found a pack of the clear ornaments. Perfect! Aaron had a great time making these with me. We shredded white paper, filled each ball a little more than half way, then drew eyes and a mouth with a Sharpie pen. Finally, a small orange nose with acrylic paint and that was it!
The snow on our back steps provided the perfect backdrop. Oh how I hate dealing with snow, but it sure is beautiful.
Pin It!
