It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas!

I've been really busy lately with my sons and daughters extra curricular activities, so all my grand spectacular expectations of making lots of quilled ornaments just haven't happened....as of yet. So far, I've made one following a pattern from Charlotte Canup and you can purchase the directions here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/88314486/quilled-snowflake-inside-glass-ornament
That was my first attempt at a quilled ornament, then I proceeded to try another snowflake of my own! The next one I wanted to try something different so I tried a Christmas stocking. I purchased the plastic ornaments at Hobby Lobby and then found some at Walmart as well. They have big and small round ones and even flat big ones! I hope that now I can make a little more time to create some more! What do you think?

    Hi, Jennifer,

    Your ornaments are AWESOME! You did just what I hoped my readers would do -- take the idea and run with it. Love the Christmas stocking. It is so festive. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with us.

♫ ♪ Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree ♪♫

  Here you can see how the paper is crimped...   So all these images keep coming to mind on what kind of quilling-inside-an-ornament I can fathom up now.  Hmmmm.....done this, what about this kind of thing!  Well, I'm having a lot of fun trying out different projects and seeing what and how I can fit things inside those tiny little openings on the DIY ornaments.  This time I was thinking hard about a Christmas tree and how I could put it together inside the ornament and how I could decorate it.  Well, here are some pictures of my thought process and how it came about.  Sincere thanks again to Charlotte Canup of The Art of Quilling  of whom I purchased the pattern to make a snowflake inside an ornament.  She inspired me to go crazy with the desire to see what else I could try! Here I am rolling it with the quilling tool.   Here I've shaped them into squares...   It really is put together inside this flat plastic ornament!!! T...
