CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT hop!


Hello!!! Can you all believe Christmas is here! OMG!!! 2012 flew right past me!  I LOVE, LOVE this time of the year though. Especially here in Florida.  Today the weather was awesome...at 70 degrees, you can't go wrong! We have all the pretty colors of fall, and we've had some cold night, but nothing uncomfortable "yet", so I'm enjoying it since i HATE, hate cold weather!
But ...now to this hop.  12 opportunities for you to be ornament inspired! The Pride of Just a Few Friends, has been soo busy, pouncing to create that ONE special Ornament.  You should see our dens, covered in glitter, ribbon and paper! In my case, my den is covered in sequence!! I chose to create THE one ornament, I'm gonna wanna keep for ever, mainly cause it took FOREVER to make! lol OMG...i didn't anticipate the time this would take, but now that it's done, I love it! All the 600 pins and sequences I used, makes this ornament heavy. Almost feels like it's made from a solid ball, when indeed it's made from a light Styrofoam ball.    
Watch the video HERE to see more on the supplies I used and pictures of the process...
I liked working on this so much I made 2 ornaments, totally different from each other, but equally fun to make!

    Hi Elsa and Krystal
    OMG these are so pretty and sparkley. I made these years ago,but with easter egg shape styrofome. I just added a bow on the top to hang on the Easter tree.
    I know what you mean about the 600 pins.I made them in mixed colors, and solid colors. I put on a sequin then a seed beed through the pin. I love the bling you added. Love your tallent.
    (ps)Transformer card.

    Gorgeous ornaments Elsa. For some reason, I can't see the pics on this blog. I am so glad you linked the video; otherwise I would have missed out on just how gorgeous these ornaments are. You are so talented.....an patient. There is no way I would be able to finish that sequin one. As gorgeous as it it, I would have thrown the stryofoam ball out the window two hours into the project. It would not be an ornament, but a faux snowball in my front yard. lol Seriously, great job. I love them both. A lot of time and love went into creating them. The end results are amazing.
