Happy Monday!  Did you have a good weekend?  Get a lot of Christmas shopping done?

For those of you (who are like me) and haven’t gotten all of their shopping done and are looking for a brilliant handmade gift idea, look no further!  Today I have two awesome handmade gift ideas for you…Christmas Tree Ornaments!

The first is super easy and will look great on any tree…it’s the Umbra Fotoball Ornament.  Just print some tiny photos the Sony machine works great (and all photos prints and copies are 50% on Tuesday!), adhere them to the piece included or a piece of paper the same size, pop it in the ornament, add a ribbon or embellishment, and done.  A great ornament that shows off your family vacation, your kiddos, your pets, you name it!  I made one using pictures from my honeymoon to St. Maarten…my tree needed a little tropical somethin’ somethin’ on it.  :)

The ideas don’t end here…

Archiver’s stores have these awesome new ornaments this year from Ragon House.  They come in two sizes – 4″ x 6″ and 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″.  Check out some amazing ornaments made using these frames:

You can make them as fancy or as simple as you want.  Just pop in a photo and hang it on your tree (or in a window, or at your desk, or wherever, it doesn’t have to be an ornament!).  Pop in a photo, add some ribbon, gems, stickers, the embellishing possibilities are endless.

I’d love to see what kinds of ornaments you’ve made this year!  Post a photo on the Archiver’s Facebook page!

Stop back tomorrow for the Pin of the Week!

Oh my goodness.

Christmas is 15 days away (if you don’t count today or Christmas Day)!

Have you sent your Christmas or Holiday cards yet?  Are the presents wrapped and ready to go?

Mine aren’t.  :/  But we’re getting there.  I still have a couple of weeks AND we’re celebrating Christmas with the South Dakota fam over New Year’s.  Extra time.  Yes.

Today’s Pick of the Week will hopefully make Christmas cards a bit easier on you…
