Ornaments for the O In the A to Z Challenge



We're skipping around Holidays here, yesterday we talked about Father's Day gifts with Neckties and today I'm jumping to Christmas, so I can pick up a couple of ideas to reuse those ornaments.

Ornaments aren't just for your tree or just for the Cold winter seasons anymore. Many vintage ornaments came in pastels and bright colors, with a bit of craftiness you can upcycle them into everyday or still just holiday designs.

How about a Topiary for your entry or for table tops. Simply Designing created this design from things she just had laying around. Styrofoam ball, hot glue and of course ornaments

 Ornaments also make great Wreaths, which also don't have to be just for Christmas 


I found this "how to" on Bloglovin by liveloveDIY

Do you have some vintage ones that you love but are afraid to use? Try this Shadowbox idea

They can be used as displays or wreaths when pared with a frame and a little ribbon. Paint to match the season or your decor.

Upcycling Christmas isn't just for the ornaments, pull out some of those big glass lights too.
They make very cute lightening bugs for your garden. I just had to sneak this one in there..


Wow! We've made it all the way to O and P's next check back  tomorrow to see what can  be done with a Picture frame. And while you're poking around be sure to check in with others that are Blogging from A to Z
