Kinderstampo Ornaments, Ornaments...
AND MORE ORNAMENTS BlogHOP

Thanks for visiting!!! I am so excited to be part of the Kinderstampo Ornaments, Ornaments and MORE Ornaments blog hop. Christmas is a very special time and I enjoy collecting and making ornaments. This bloghop is so unique, as you could win one of each of the ornaments on this hop - INCLUDING MINE!!! So leave on comment on each and every stop on the hop to secure your entry to win each ornament to be drawn at the end of the hop - 11:59pm on Dec. 18th. If you arrived here in the middle of the hop CLICK HERE to return to the start.
ALSO - there will be ONE GRAND PRIZE winner that will be picked from all the comments left on all the blogs...A stocking full of suprises - Some Lindy's Stamp Gang, KinderStampO, Karlas001, Helmar, PYMII and Unity Stamps...YAY!
I LOVE making handmade things, too. Each year I create a handmade ornament for my Grandmother to give to two dozen of her painting students. This has become a tradition for us and this year's creation just safely arrived in Chicago two days ago. This ornament I am sharing today was my very first creation for her...a folded paper origami ornament.
A perfect compliment to silver bell or glass ball ornaments.

This is made using retired Anna Griffin AG1095 patterned paper - a lovely light blue, white, & grey pattern with touches of gold. The ornament is approximately 5" high from top to bottom of tassel, has a white 1/8" satin ribbon loop to hang from {approx. 2 1/2"}, and finished with silver plated filigree cone. A silver lined glass bead adorns a handmade embroidery floss tassel. 
I make and sell these in different colors and patterned papers in my Etsy shoppe, SalonDArte. I also create larger size paper lanterns and create many by custom order.
Next stop is with Jessica Baker at That'z Uneek - CLICK HERE!
Thanks for visiting! Please don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win my ornament. Also, you can sign up to receive my posts in your inbox with the widget at the top right of my page. I am always up in the wee hours creating...perhaps an altered book project, ATCs, ornaments, or projects for the Unscripted Sketches, Viva Las Vegastamps! & Amazing Mold Putty Design Teams.
