I finished a few more spool ornaments. I plan to take proper pictures and post the ornaments to Etsy today.
How do you feel about snow like the red one has? Yes, please? Or, no, I like them better without?
The bead stars I used on my previous spool ornaments were blue like on the spool of blue thread below. The blue star didn’t look good with the colors I was using this time around. I looked through my bead collection and found little flower beads that work well as stars. The silver looks good with the spool colors.
I use miniature ornaments, bells, and charms to dangle from the bottom of the ornament. Most get a bead of some kind to add a little bling.
Purple, anyone?
I trimmed this spool with a little wired chenille. Extra sparkle.
I’m working on more of them today, though I need more bottle brush trees. I have those ordered and they should be here on Tuesday. More soon!

I think I like them better without snow – although I am sure there are plenty of people who would love the snowy goodness! These are so pretty. Those must be some small bottle brush trees. 😉
I love these! So pretty!!
