Cute ornaments. Pity we can’t have anything like that in our tree. Too many cats….
I’ve only ever made one ornament and that was by stitching a (large) christmas themed cat button onto a star-shaped filigree and then attaching a dangle made of a red drop pendant and red bead on an eyepin. Easy to make, no need for a lot of supplies, and finally something to do with my christmas cat button.
Hi Maneki, I’m proud of myself for planning ahead for next year. I bought some tiny Santa / snowman bells, and some Christmas charms mixes, which will get turned into ornaments or decorate gift packages at Christmas 2010
