Ornaments

 Daddy wants to set up our Christmas tree next weekend so today we started making our 2013 ornaments!  I wasn't very inspired this year, but we still managed to make a few different ones ~
This was a group project ~ we pinned sequins and tiny paper flowers onto a styrofoam ball (A lot harder than I was thinking!)
But they were both quite patient 

Here's our unfinished ball ~ don't you think it's going to be beautiful when it is done??

Next we painted glue onto a styrofoam ball and covered it with glitter

This was more up our alley

Bet you are wondering what we are going to do with them!

Next we painted our initial red (more to come on this one, too)

Buttons and bows (well, ribbon)

Our little man

We made mini button trees ~ CUTE!

Cupcakes!  Now that's where those glitter balls went! :)
Gregory just figured out an easier way to pin the flowers onto the ornament!  Put the sequin on the pin, line up the flowers on the ball and pin it to the ball!  Genius!  Guess we'll be able to make more than one!   (See Santa Baby? :))
