Christmas Floral Ornament – by Heidi Blankenship
This is another one of those ‘OH MY’ projects! Heidi created a mini Christmas floral ornament for us today using one of the little Maya Road Vintage Linen Treasure Bags as her base. She filled it with cotton balls, added a few holiday greenery floral sprigs and embellished away using some Prima poinsettias, a Kaisercraft die cut Christmas image, some gorgeous ribbons and a bit of sparkly glitz. She did use a hot glue gun on this project. I adore little projects of this type! Wouldn’t these be fun to make for those small girlfriend exchange gifts so many of us do? Or for a hostess or teacher gift — wonderful!!! Let’s take a look:
So very, very beautiful!!! Just pause to check out every detail — there’s a lot to take in!
The finished project is about 6″ high.
