Rekindle some joyous spirits from Christmas past by re-crafting some of your most precious Christmas ornaments with your loved ones.
What do you do when parents no longer want to do the whole Christmas tree decorating thing and they have chosen to part with such items as ornaments? Well, faced with going thru my parents boxes of holiday items, and already having several of my own ornaments, I decided to come up with a way to pass on the family traditions by re-crafting such precious ornaments for my Christmas dinner party. If you are going to be hosting such an event you may want to check this out.
Supplies you will need for this project:
Ornaments Red & White clear colored cellophane wrap. Gift tag stickers Glass bowl or medium size decorative basket Sharpie pen – We chose red & green, but black would work also. Craft Scissors Satin Ribbon – We chose a candy striped, but a red & white plaid would also work.
Using your fine tip sharpie pen, label each gift tag by writing the words “Generation to Generation” or you can make your own paper craft gift tags. Next, using your craft scissors, cut cellophane in to squares large enough to tie a bow at the top of the ornament. For this project we chose to alternate red cellophane and clear cellophane. This way the beauty of the ornaments can be viewed through the cellophane. A pretty candy striped satin ribbon is used to add a decorative touch by tying a bow to secure your cellophane to the ornament. Now you’re ready to personalize your project. Peel and stick your labeled gift tag sticker directly on to the cellophane. Or, if you prefer, you can make your own paper craft gift tag.
When arranging your wrapped ornaments either in a glass bowl or decorative basket, keep in mind that the heavier large ornaments will need to be placed at the bottom, and the medium sized ornaments in the middle and smaller ornaments on top. Next, place your bowl or basket next to the front door. Your family members will truly enjoy sorting through the beautifully wrapped ornaments, but most of all, a “parents” or “grandparents” memory of holiday gatherings will be with them always and now they can pass them down to their next generation and so on and so on.
