Five more days until Christmas. Four for crafting, and I am feeling the pinch. I don't have all my presents made or purchased. It's just been a crazy, busy, chaotic past few months. But I'm getting there.
Today I'd like to share a Christmas ornament I made. It seems that the latest trend is the vintage red truck - AND - YES - I jumped on the bandwagon. I saw this Christmas Truck file over at Apex Cuttables and just had to sit down and play with it.
This ornament I did differently than all my others. I didn't think that the glitter technique was right for showing off this fun, memory making truck. So instead, I decided to fill the ornament with miniature Styrofoam balls, or foam pebbles. This is the same 2 inch, flat disc ornament that I have used for the majority of my ornament making this year. I find that they are much easier to work with than the round ball shapes.
If you haven't finished your gift making yet, these would make great little gifts to give to friends, family, teachers or other service providers you frequent. Just add their family name and year on the reverse side of the ornament and it's personalized and ready to go.
