We are nearly dreaming of a white Christmas. We have been watching the snow fall all day out our NJ office windows, and figured that today was the perfect time to share a sparkly ornament project!
It’s hard to concentrate with all of that sparkle out there! We know it puts you in the mood to craft, too… so here you go:
These ornaments are perfect for the tree, or used as package tie-ons. Easy enough to complete in a night, so make your list and sleigh ride on over to the craft store for your supplies!
