Hello and a quick question for you! Are you ready for Christmas? I am not, but I wanted to jump in real quick and share this super easy, and creative ornament you can make. Have you managed to create a little something special for your holiday decorating or for your co-workers? If you don't have much time, but want to make something super special for a group of friends then this project is perfect for you. With a few supplies and an afternoon or evening of creating you can make a handful of these beautiful trees (or more) for everyone you know.

 

I'm lucky that my Dad has a great workshop and likes to cut little wood shapes for me, but if you don't have that, you can always use thick chipboard, balsa wood that you can cut with an x-acto blade or other thin substrates. If you end up using a thinner piece for your base, you can always punch a hole in the top of the tree to use as your hanger instead of inserting the Memo Pin. 

 

Thank you for joining me, and have a super wonderful Christmas season, and if you don't celebrate Christmas I hope your Holiday Season is wonderful!
