Felt Snowflake Ornaments

I wanted to share another quick and easy ornament for the tree.

It can also be used as a package topper.

I love to cut all the felt circles and then lay them next to my spot on the couch.  

I find the stitching relaxing while I am watching tv.


This little guy just uses some felt, stuffing, cotton crochet thread, and an old button.

Stitch the snowflake design on one circle.

Sew on the button.

Blanket stitch the two circles together.

Before completely closing the opening, add a little stuffing.

Then finish closing and tie off.

Add another loop of string to hang it.


You can do a bunch of the same design or do all different snowflakes.


Thanks for stopping by....

Book Page Dresses


One of my very favorite ornaments for the tree are little origami dresses.



Made with discarded book pages and a few vintage trims, they are so simple.


I love adding little crepe paper wings that I stitch by hand.



I carry these in my Etsy shop Artistic Endeavors 101.



They look sweet  on the Christmas tree.



They make a fun package gift tag.



My plan is to get some more of these made soon.

I will show them to you when I do...
