Making Christmas Ornaments 12/13/2019

When I was growing up, we didn't have much.  We had what we need and I don't remember a time when we went without anything important, but back then we didn't even know we were missing anything.

One of my favorite memories growing up were the hand made Christmas ornaments we would make every year.  They weren't always the same, but it was always so much fun.  We didn't even realize that we didn't have an expensive designer tree or ornaments. 

Sometimes the ornaments were Christmas scenes from coloring books that we colored, cut out, added glitter, and then glued to old cardboard cereal boxes.  Then punched a hole in the top, tied some string through it and then added it to the tree.

Or we would trace our hands on cardboard, cut them out, and cover them in foil.  Whatever the ornaments were, we always made sure to mark our names and the year on them so we could look back and see how we have changed over the years. 

Here is this years ornament making session:

See ya soon!
