We do love Christmas and one thing we LOVE doing is making at least one little homemade Christmas ornament every year. Both for our Christmas tree and Granny’s! Some these I made with the children, some on my own and hopefully there will be something for everyone!

It looks like you have some fabulous ornament tutorials. I love the orange slice one!
I love it! Can’t get my head around Christmas just yet, but definitely planning on making home made ornaments again this year. I think they are wonderful keepsakes. (Granted a lot of the ones I made as a child *might* have ended up towards the back of my parents tree as years went by….sigh) Pinning!
Thanks for the list.I love the walnut babies.
Oh I love the pine cone angels 🙂 We have some little silver pine cones that could do with sprucing up 🙂
