recently I have been feeling pretty motivated to start crafting again. With november here that means christmas is just right around the corner! I love christmas. I especially love making homemade gifts. Being my first year of marriage, this has been a great opportunity to start a tradition of christmas cards. Instead of ordering the typical christmas from costco or shutterfly, I have decided to create my own.

ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteFor the christmas ornament you will need
1. Tekton Monogramer ( i got it on amazon)
2. Tin heart with drilled hole
(I found the hearts in a vintage store (they are made out of tin) down in encinitas,ca. Not sure where you can find them normally. They were definetly a gem find! However, you can proboably find something made out of tin or metal at a local bead store or at a Michaels maybe even amazon.)
3. Twine
4. Hammer
Make sure the metal that you use for the ornament is flat, then you hammer your letter onto the metal piece on concrete. Then you will put the twine in the hole and knot it! There ya go hope that helps :)
