My ornaments have been posted and should have all reached their recipients by now so I can finally share what I made here on the blog.
To begin with I thought I would make a felt tree ornament and even made a prototype. But whilst I think it's quite cute it's not exactly great standards of sewing! So that one is just for me and I moved onto Plan B instead.
I've seen quite a few little photo frame ornaments around this year and decided to have a go at making something along those lines. It fitted in well with my love of scrapbooking as well.
So here is what I came up with...
And here are the 5 ornaments I made for the swap plus the one I made for me (complete with cute baby photo!).
And we all know that the packaging of wee parcels can make it so much more exciting to receive them so I made envelopes (from hot pink card!) and hand drew borders on address labels. I wrapped the ornaments themselves in tissue paper and also included a little card and chocolate santa with each one.
I really hope my swap partners like them and find a lovely photo to put in theirs.
And once I've received all my ornaments I'll be sure to post a picture of them all together :-)
