I’ve still got Christmas ornaments on the brain . . . especially as they’re the subject of the next podcast. And then I got really inspired by Susan‘s Holiday Ornament Roundup over at the Adorn blog. Plus, I put up my tree last weekend (Man, she’s getting packed), and have been enjoying the returning cast of characters.
Some favorite handmade ornaments in my stash:

My mom made this dragonfly, and tooled the designs on the wings. She’s such a genius with tin!

This is another of hers – very elegant.

A woman I used to work with made this one, and I’ve always thought it was cool. Just hazelnuts, moss, and glue.

And these are some temari I made. I could make temari forever – it’s so rhythmic, and working with color is always fun.

Oh, and here’s a doofy train I made from a kit sometime in the 1970′s.

Now, check these out – Recycled Peace Ornaments, from my December Craft Leftovers Monthly. (The Monthly is, as always, fantastic.) This kit comes with felted sweater fabric, seed beads, floss, and instructions. I can’t wait to make them!

I exclaimed out loud over your mom’s dragonfly. What beautiful work! They’re my favorite motif and I would happily buy one, if she were ever to make them available. :) But at any rate…great stuff!

All of them are so cute, love your mom’s dragonfly with those cool wings, and your little train made me smile! In Sweden we don’t put up the tree until 23 of December! Just before Christmas Eve when we celebrate Christmas!
