Every year I try to add a warm handmade touch to our Christmas decor around the house: giving new life to vintage ornaments, crocheting a star garland, recycling ornaments and turning them into table centerpieces.
This year I decided to make bottle and jar ornaments.
I used:
– bottle and jar caps
– tiny wooden toys
– printables (wanted to use Christmas related ones; instead I used a music sheet, dictionary extract and snowy village scene). Check out
– branches
– cotton
– foil
– ribbon
– beads
This is a bottle cap ornament and not quite spectacular, but cute anyway. It was a breeze to make.
I glued sheet music inside, then glued a piece of a garland around the cap (again- not a full circle). I glued an angel at the center as added beads to make it a tiny bit richer. I glued and then tied at the center a golden mash ribbon.
As you can see below, they have already found their place on the tree.
I hope you get inspired to make some yourself!
