Paper Ornaments--And 100th Post!

I wasn't aware of how many ornaments were needed to decorate a 5-foot tree.

I didn't have ornaments.

I didn't want to buy them either, (expensive!!) I'd rather buy Christmas gifts.

But a bare tree would have just been sad. Solution?

Homemade paper ornaments! I already had all the supplies & after a Google search for "paper ornaments," I found great ideas which I readily put into use. Here are some of our creations:

Glittery Star

Origami Star
Spheres

"Vintage" Ornaments

Ribbons, beads, and berries finished the gilded look

Last Wednesday we had Franco's family over to celebrate Bishop Castrejon's birthday!
