okay. so the youth program in my church does a giving tree during the holiday season. we put up things a family would need this christmas season and then the ward picks what they want and buys for them…then we wrap and deliver. and a while ago i see these ornaments on pinterest and i knew that i wanted to knock it off–something easy that we could whip out in one mutual activity.
beforehand: i took some spray adhesive…leftover book pages…and cardboard
and covered the whole board in pages. (i did this prior so we didn’t’ have to smell the fumes!)
and used them as stencils…
cut them all out….and distressed the edges with an ink pad….
punch a hole and added some twine
cute little ornaments that aren’t’ an eye sore on your tree (you KNOW what i’m talking about)
