My mom has recently begun making ornaments like these since she’s started getting back into her art! It’s so fun and I love how they turn out. They’re gorgeous. Next year, I may have her give me some tips so I can make them for myself. I don’t have that kind of artistic skill BUT I absolutely love the simplicity of these!
This is such a fun project! I’m sure my nanny kiddos would love to do this.
These diy ornaments are really cute! I’ve made these before but used them as coasters. I never thought to turn them into ornaments. What a great idea!
These are so cute and rustic! I made dried orange slice ornaments for my tree this year, I think next year I’ll make these to go with them!
