I have made these coasters alot. They are so easy and would look like ornaments made from Christmas fabric.

I've made these for several years now - always seem to get a good response, and they're very easy (and relatively inexpensive!).

I first did this at a December bridal shower. all the attendees got to paint their own ornament and that was their party favor. They were all gorgeous! Everyone enjoyed it (men and women).
The last couple of years i have been buying the bulbs at after Christmas sales and making my own ornaments for the next year. One year I did lime green the next year I did orange and gold. Both trees were beautiful. I got so many complements. (as you can see I am not a traditionalist). LOL. Have fun.

I spent WAY too much time on this site this morning. I went to so many different blogs. Found an amazing lazy cat ornament that can be enlarged to a pot holder, a basket pattern, and sooooooooo much more. Loved it and thank you. Glenda

I got a Styrofoam tree shape. folded 2 in squares like prairie points, stuck two small pins in to hold them, went all the way around the bottom of the shape. Next row I cover about half of the first row, but off set them, so no Styrofoam showed. Jest keep going till you reach the top, I covered it with one of the squares, then put a bow or a star on it.
very easy, foam comes in all sizes, makes a great centerpiece. Have fun
PS can do the same thing with foam egg shapes, start at the pointy part of the egg, end with a loop of ribbon to hang them, looks like pine cones!
