This was the scene over the weekend. Ornaments! Ornaments! Ornaments! This year, we made 3 styles of ornaments; each for a different occasion. The Bodacious Personalized Ornaments are the ones I offered for sale. I made about 15 'Happy Paw-lidays' for an event we are attending. The last batch is "Love" ornaments for our Spreading Holiday Love and Cheer party on December 9th. We have a 3-foot tree that we'll be decorating the kitchen table with. The "Love" ornaments will be hung on the tree. Our guests can choose one to take home.
That's a lot of ornaments!
It took a week from start to finish, but it wasn't consistent time. Around dinnertime last Tuesday, I put the ornaments in the biscuit/craft room along with the paints and brushes. Wednesday I spent the entire day prepping for Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving, we had company. Friday morning, before Lisa left for work, she put everything back on the table. Between Friday and a little work on Saturday, the ornaments were all finished by Saturday afternoon.
What. A. Relief.
I enjoy making holiday ornaments. It's our second year making them. However, it's a lot of work and they're time-consuming.
At the end of the day, it's all worth it.
