Do you need quick and easy ornament for an ornament exchange this last weekend before Christmas? Here is how I created two ornaments for the Church's Ornament Exchange last weekend. For less than $10.00.
$2.50 box of ornaments from Wal-Mart (the ones I didn't use are going on the tree)
$3.00 fluffy stuff from Hobby Lobby (was less because it was on sale)
I used black ribbon I had, but you could add dollar or two to buy fresh ribbon, and still come out under $10.00.
The fluffy stuff was self-stick. I wrapped it twice around the stem of the ornament sticking as I went. The stick 'ums weren't very strong, so I tied a piece of ribbon over top of the fluff. Cut another piece to for the hanger. I tied the loop at the base and top so the loop wouldn't move around as much. Then with a black sharpie I put the year. I got both ornaments done in less than 10 minutes.
If you had some fun fringe scraps that would work wonderfully too! Happy Crafting!
