Thirty ornaments to make with your kids for keepsakes, or just for fun!
I especially love the globe ornaments, so I even included a section of just those!
Six keepsake ornaments.
Ten globe ornaments.
And fourteen ornaments that the kids can make!
So call the kids over as you scroll through these and decide which ornament you’ll make today! [And then choose another to make tomorrow! I think you'll have enough to do one each day until Christmas!]

What a great collection! I want to make them all!!
oooo, i'm inspired! thanks for including our shells among these beautiful ornaments! we're currently in the process of making more pinecone fairy ornaments (http://paintcutpaste.com/pine-cone-fairies/), painted wooden ornament (http://paintcutpaste.com/pimp-my-pine/), and fancy globe ornaments (http://paintcutpaste.com/fancy-globe-ornaments/) right now. and one other treat that will be on the blog soon… though i'm honestly not sure if our tree can hold another doo-dad! happy holidays!
What a gorgeous, gorgeous collection! Loved each of them…
Time to make some in the days to come…! ah..it rhymed
Happy Thanksgiving
Amazing and fun and so many are really creative from the kids' own styles. I have to throw in one more idea that was a big hit and my grown girls still love to see: MINI PAINTINGS! We bought tiny frames and they made tiny paintings and drawings. They even glued tiny paints to the BACKS of the frames. Yes, glitter is part of it all. So cute on a wreath or on the tree. they like for me to just set them up on a shelf so they are easy to see. Precious masterpieces. I'll get a picture for you before long, I HOPE! Have to bring out the boxes first…. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas. Thank you for all you do to brighten our lives.
