Do you have pictures of the ornaments? I love that idea.

Sadly, no...I never took pics of the ornaments. But when I bring down my Christmas ornaments to decorate this year, I'll take a pic of the one I made for myself. Chat Icon



It's funny, this morning I was thinking...I should take a picture of the bells I make to post them but, like you, I have to wait to take out all the Christmas stuff. Oh well. Where did you get the wooden ornaments?? Micheal's??

I make beaded bells. I'll have to post a picture of them. They are so easy to make and take about an hour each. You use tooth floss and thread beads onto it and make a bell out of it. I have instructions for it if anyone is interested.



I'd love to see the instructions if you don't mind! I have a ton of seed beads and this would be a great project.

Ok. No problem except that they are in with my Christmas decorations!!! I'll do a quick look in the boxes to see if I can easily find them. Remind me if I forget. Chat Icon

I found this link which gives you the materials and instructions to make beaded bells.

I may purchase one to see how hard it is.

THOSE ARE THE BELLS I MAKE!!! Don't buy the kit. I'll get the instructions out this weekend and send them to whoever wants them. Actually, the bells I make look a little different (different pattern) but that's the main idea.

I do believe that with each ornament, there is a link for the instructions

Every year I make calendars for my family and friends on ShutterFly. They all love them and look forward to getting them! I use ShutterFly for everything - love that site Chat Icon

I also make small cross stitch pieces for people. 2 years ago, I made something for all of DH's immediate family. I found that what I made wasn't super appreciated though, so I will no longer be doing that for them. I make little ornaments for my co-workers that they all hang on their cubicles.
