Paint Stick ornaments.. These were so fun and easy to make. Last year, I found these on this blog. http://todaysfabulousfinds.blogspot.com/2010/11/printable-paintstick-ornaments-tutorial.html?m=1 She made these free printables to use. And her instructions are so easy to follow.. Keep reading my confession will follow in the end. smile |
I love the truck/car and Christmas tree stuff. Carolyn at : http://ourgildedabode.blogspot.com/2016/12/2016-christmas-decor.html Carolyn, made some of these mason jar ring ornaments , using paper from Hobby Lobby.. They were so cute.. I am not finished with these..[waiting on it to warm up, so I can paint my jar rings. eeeeeh]. I also decided to do a paint stick one too. Fun and Cute. ps. Thank you Carolyn for reminding me where to find the instructions for the paint stick ornaments.. You are where I first saw the ornaments.. They were so pretty on your tree. Confession time... In Early December- 2015, I saw these adorable paint stick ornaments.. I rushed out to Lowes to buy the sticks and paint to make them. Came home , was oh so sweet to hubby.. and got him to cut the sticks and drill holes in them.. He got them done really quick [see, he knew I was in a hurry. So, I could get them on the tree...Welllllllll.. I procrastinated. I painted them. [the first step for me, Kenny had done the other steps.] I put them in a basket, out of sight and out of mind.. Forgot them......... oh no. I pulled them out , determined to finish them up in 2017.. I couldn't find the blog of the lady who gave the instructions.. [I had forgotten that Carolyn made them? -- old age for sure]. Then Carolyn emailed me with the blog sight... [she is so sweet]. And i finally finished them... [A little too late for Christmas 2016...--- But you be looking for them to be shining on my 2017 Christmas tree.. My prayer is that you all have a very blessed and Merry Christmas.. |

DeleteThey are lovely, Judy! I would go ahead and add them to the tree, this year! There's still a couple of days till Christmas, after all!
ReplyDeleteThank you Bless.. I had fun doing them..[even though it took me so long, ha]
DeleteSo glad I was able to help you find the source, Judy! Yours turned out beautifully! And it was so nice of Janet to provide the free printable and the instructions. I noticed she just added additional paint stick printables with all the names of Christ in Spanish. So nice! Wishing you an awesome Christmas with your family!
ReplyDeleteThank you Carolyn. I appreciate you.
DeleteI too, saw the new printables that Janet posted for the paint sticks.. What an awesome idea.
Pray you and your family have a blessed and Merry Christmas too.
Oh, they are so pretty! You did a great job! The others will give you something to look forward to for next year, Lord willing! God bless you and your family with a wonderfully blessed Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Cheryl.. I enjoyed making them.. And look forward to finishing the others.. Hope you and your family have a blessed and Merry Christmas.
DeleteThey are definitely pretty, Judy. You did an amazing job. Have a wonderful Christmas!
ReplyDeleteTHank you so much... I enjoyed making them... Hope you and your family a wonderful Christmas.
DeleteI guess you know you're not the only one who does that kind of thing......I guess it will be a bunch of surprises for me when I finally get through the remaining bins from our move. Here's hoping I get the willpower to get right at it now that Christmas is over.
ReplyDeleteThe ornaments did turn out beautifully.
Thank you Becky.
DeleteI think a lot of us have that procrastination problem.lol Moving is so hard. We just moved in May [after living in our other house for 30+ years].Wow.. was it a job .. And we are still looking for stuff . ha
I love your decorations, so glad you were able to finish them, even if slightly late. I have done that also where each year I'll pull something out and this will be the year I will finish it but then time gets away. At least you succeeded! Have a wonderful New Years! Kelly.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly.. Proud I am not the only one.ha
DeleteHappy New Year to you and your family..
Oh my goodness, dear Judy...we are more alike than you know! This is exactly something I would have done (and have done!)! These are so adorable...I will have to try some of these! I hate to admit how many projects I have all the supplies for...but haven't done yet! (smile)

Laura

DeleteThese were so easy, and turned out so cute.. what a shame, I procrastinated and took so long to do them.. I want to make some more this year/ Let me know , if you make them, I would love to see them.
