I’ve been all over the place regarding crafts this weekend. I’ve worked on making a dog bed, ornaments, crochet rug, and on my Countdown to Christmas calendar.
Thanks to this awesome aqua deer ornament from Thrift Store Crafter (Sarah even has a free pattern!), I got the urge to create some ornaments.
I pulled out my felt, sequins, beads and threads and starting browsing the Googles machine for ideas. So far I’ve made:
This little bird was my first attempt. I totally stole the idea from somewhere online, but I can’t find the source now.
This little owl idea is stolen from a brooch I saw
Dala horse – it’s my favorite. I actually came up with this one on my own.
Now that I have all my supplies out I’m going to try and create some vintage looking ornaments. I’ll definitely be making Sarah’s deer pattern as well.
Hope you’re having a great weekend.
