Handmade Ornaments
Handmade Ornaments It's a funny thing....I do nice things for people and that always leads to me doing more things. I had my cancer support group meeting today. Since it is close to Christmas and since I've been making handmade ornaments with my girls for the tree this year, I decided I would make a little handmade ornament for each of the individuals in my cancer support group. The ornaments were really cute....I used permanent marker and drew holly on them and then used red glitter for the holly berries....I then wrote such things as "Survivor", "Cancer Survivor" or "Find a Cure" on them since they were for people who have all been through cancer. I then finished them off with a small bow and pretty ribbon. I also did some that had the cancer ribbon in a variety of colors (based on the type of cancer) and decorated those with glittering dots and ribbon as well (photo in post shows an example of the ornament). Well one of the women who attends the meetings is a nurse at the hospital and also a chairperson for our local "Relay for Life" which I am also a part of. Come to find out, she is doing a craft fair this weekend for "Relay for Life" to raise money for this summer's event. She loved my ornaments and wished she had known how crafty I was earlier so I could make some for the craft show this weekend. Well of course, being the person that I am, I told her I could make some by Friday night for the craft show on Saturday. She was ecstatic so now I will be busy tomorrow and Friday making as many ornaments as I can get done. It is of course for a wonderful cause and I hope that they sell so we can raise money for the "Relay for Life". By the time Friday night comes I am sure I will be thoroughly sick of making ornaments but it will be well worth it...Wish me luck!!! |
