4 kinds of awesome: Ornaments

Scandinavian chic fromHaabet: The Woven Christmas Heart which is a classic decoration in Scandinavia and can be hung from the Christmas tree or filled with little treats.











Paper Lantern Ornaments at The Creative Place:
I am absolutely in love with those since I bought something similar at Ikea last year - now I can make them myself, in just the right colors and patterns.
Scoutie Girl answers the question whether old Christmas Cards can have an afterlife: they can, and look gorgeous on a Christmas tree!
Design Sponge shares a super simple and super pretty modern ornament. I envision alternating these and the paper lantern ornaments and hanging them from a curtain rod or clothesline.







All of these would not only make great decorations, but could also beautify any gift in lieu of a gift tag or bow.

  1. And this has totally been on my to-do list... to make pretty ornaments [This will be me and the hubs' 3rd Christmas together, and we still can count the number of ornaments that we own on our hands]
    I'll have to visit a few of these links!
