Christmas DIY: wedding invitation ornament

Being newlyweds we don't have a large supply of Christmas ornaments yet so I have been looking around for DIY ornament versions.  I also wanted a way to commemorate our wedding in an ornament.

Here's what you need:
-clear ornament
-scissors
-wedding invitation or program
-ribbon

What you do:

1. Take your program/invitation and cut it into strips.  These can be as large as you want them to be.  Also be sure to cut in the direction of the text so you can read what it says.  

2. I chose to stick my strips straight into the ornament but you could also roll them up like the sheet music ornament diy if you wanted.  

3.  You can stop here but I also chose to add a bow to the top in our wedding color.  

I love being able to look at the ornament and remember our special day.

Christmas DIY: sheet music ornament

I participated in the Southern Weddings Christmas Ornament Swap and decided to make these beautiful sheet music ornaments.

What you need:

- clear ball ornament 

- sheet music (I just googled Christmas sheet music for mine, about 2 pages per ball is plenty) 

- ribbon

- scissors

How to:

1. Cut the sheet music into strips horizontally 

2. Roll the strips up and stuff them into the ornament.  Don't be too particular about the size, different sizing makes it interesting.  

3. Tie a bow on the top of the ornament and hang it on your tree.
