Merry Christmas!

I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! I am finishing up a couple of things and realized I never posted these ornaments made with clothes pins. I had saved this from last year. I subscribe to this blog called, Under the Table & Dreaming. Its kind of like Pinterest, where people post diy projects, recipes, and all things cute. So here are my ornaments:





To make the clothes pin base, you will take apart your clothespins.

Hot glue them together, back to back.

So they look like this. Our Silicone mats work perfect for gluing these together.

Now start gluing them together like this.

This is what they look like when finished. Now you can leave them like this, or embellish them like I did. Its easy to add your hanger through those little holes. I found in my stash that I had some smaller clothes pins and glued them on top of the larger ones and then added my medallions, etc. And I should add that I made some of the ornaments on the cover of the Holiday Catalog and added them to the clothes pin ornament and they looked very nice. I have given most of them away. I thought I took a photo, but I don't see it. I will try and post it tomorrow. As the usual right now I'm pressed for time. Where did December go??? 
 Have a Merry Christmas! Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog.
