Clever Ideas for Handmade Christmas Ornaments?
 
A group of girlfriends have decided to exchange handmade ornaments each year. I need some good ideas - easy but a little funky Does anyone have any clever ideas for handmade Christmas ornaments?
 
 
Yes actually there are several - the most common it to use old christmas cards. I will try and dig up the directions. I like to make "icicle"-type ornaments out of beads. Use craft wire and a variety of beads to make any color you like. I call them icicle ornaments because they tend to start out wide at the top and taper at the bottom by the use of gradually smaller size beads. Michaels has a seemingly endless variety of beads to choose from. I saw something similar on one of the HGTV shows and then modified the design over time.
