It’s Kitschmas, after all, so you know I couldn’t resist a little bit of this:
But I could not be content with simple ornament wreath making! All those empty ornament boxes put me in mind of what Georgia Peachez does with hers. So then there was a little of this:
and this:
and this:
I even took Little Betty down with me:
I actually really like the one she made! She is her mother’s daughter for sure. That girl loves to craft.

I’ve also been picking up Santa head mugs all year:

12 years agoOooooh, I love the ornament box dioramas! Never woulda thought of that! All your ornaments are so cute 🙂 I have a special adoration for Santa mugs. I love how all the faces can be so different–from truly jolly to almost grumpy or bored, lol. Nice collection!
