    I plan to start working on some ornaments this weekend. I haven't decided what to make yet, but I plan to jump right in & make something!

    My oldest daughter & I make an ornament on Thanksgiving Day, because we love handmade ornaments. She has a studio apartment & has a 4-foot green tree. I've made an ornament for each of the girls every Christmas, but with all the moves we've made, even crossing the Atlantic twice, I don't know what happened to those ornaments! So we're creating new handmade ornaments, little by little.

    White tree branches sounds interesting! Sorry, I come from a country where we put up REAL trees, so they are usually green by nature . Although I personally won't have a tree, I will hang my ornaments on the window and put up a few (real) pine branches on a cupboard to decorate. I'll enjoy the tree at my parents' place which we usually decorate together on Christmas Eve afternoon!

    It sounds like some of us are working great guns to get our ornaments done. I love working on them too. They are so satisfying to see after they are finished. Who knew that such a tiny object could release so much creativity?

    Welcome to the ornament swap SMR! You are number 40 in the swap.

    I'm making ornaments in sets of 2 and 4. Just because I can't settle on just one design, and this way I have plenty for my tree and a nice selection to choose from to send to my partner!
