B..B..B..Big Moth! ~ WW

I think he's trying to figure out how to fit into the harness!

Quick and Easy Ornaments, Gifts or/and Gift Toppers

Digging through my Treasure Stash I came across 

some old Formica Swatches.

Big ones...

and little ones.

I knew there had to be something Christmasy

 I could do with these wonders

They were nice and hard and would make for a great backing to.....

Gifts Toppers

Ornaments

I gathered a bunch of supplies:

trims

 papers

images

lace

beads

and any other embellishments I could think of!

And of course Mod Podge!

I coated the Formica Swatch with Mod Podge.    

I placed my chosen background paper on top

and smoothed it on carefully so there were no wrinkles.

Once dry I trimmed the background paper to fit the swatch exactly.

I copied some old images I had, printed them, 

then cut them out using an Exacto blade.

I used Mod Podge to adhere them to the background paper 

and them embellished away!

Some received pearl strands and shiny clear gems ~

others were edged in vintage lace, pearls and trim.

I used coordinating ribbon for hanging.

On a few of the smaller ones, 

I used vintage images of women in their Christmas clothing.

A couple only have coordinating trim along the bottom.

Your imagination is the only limit!

This was a fun and quick project

for a stormy afternoon without electricity!
