"I remember using straight pins to put sequins on styrofoam balls when I was younger. It was kind of tedious but fun back then. Now, i think strings of sequins would be so much easier and just as pretty. I have some old ornaments that I thought about getting rid of, instead I am going to rejuvenate them this way."

"Those are beautiful! I need to get more felt I keep coming across things I want to make from it. These flowers look so eaasy that I want to dig right in, but I would probably make them of white and red for the Christmas tree, and other colors for other holidays. Red would be awesome for Valentine's Day, too."

"I think these would make for a great heirloom ornament. I'd take it a step further by saving a piece of each fresh Christmas tree and let it dry during the months after Christmas. Have someone neatly slice the piece of tree to make ornaments. What a perfect way to commemorate each year of a child's life or a marriage by having slices of each Christmas tree and making an ornament for each year from the actual tree the family celebrates the home holiday with. Beautiful, rustic and meaningful!"

"This one made me laugh right out loud! It has to go on my "to do" list for sure. I am not that good with needle and thread, but I will try it for sure. I can just see it hanging on the tree and people giving it a double take."
