Painting the Ornaments

After sending hubby off today to do some volunteer work, I decided to get busy on these little ornaments for the Christmas tree next year.

Starting to put together these little cones I've had for about 2 years now. I've painted them pink and stuffed them with cotton and snippets of pink paper. Just need to put the ribbons on with which to hang them and decide what to use for the decoration on them.

Random Thoughts:

I consider myself in the "wilds" when I can't see the "Golden Arches"!!

  6. I was out shopping yesterday and thought of you everytime I ran across something pink. I cannot wait to see your tree next year! And yes, I agree... if you can't see the golden arches, you are too far away!!!! I used to live in a rural mountain town... 45 minutes to the golden arches!
