Feature Friday - DIY Paper Ornaments

After our whirlwind trip to visit family for Thanksgiving, I promptly returned home and grabbed my Christmas boxes out of our storage unit to start decorating! We have moved many times over the past few years, and have not spent a single Christmas in our own house. Which meant that I stopped opening our Christmas bins about 5 years ago! I have been adding little things to them over the years, but never took anything out! Imagine my amazement and joy as I opened up each box- ornaments, nutcrackers, candles, snowmen - Christmas joy came early for me this year. The added bonus is that my daughter is now 3, and she had as much fun as I did digging through all the boxes, pulling out little Christmas treasures.

As I opened up the second box of goodies, I let out a little shout of glee when I found these - adorable, handmade, paper ornaments. They were made by my dear friend, Bekah, as a gift for me a few years ago. This is the first year I get to hang them up and show them off, and I can't wait to share them with you! I'm so inspired by them, I hope to make a couple of my own this year.

LOVE these gold ornaments!

And while I love the classic look of the gold ornament, I think the pink and green take on the darling little hanging ball is a perfect twist for the holidays! 

What I can't do is give you a step by step, picture tutorial on how to make your own little paper ornament, but I can send you over to Inkspirations for a GREAT tutorial.

Here's a few more pics, just for fun!

Now you get to share your holiday projects for this season!
