I love making my own ornaments to use on packages and boxes of cookies that I share each holiday season. This year I was looking for a new idea and I decided that these little glitter deer were the perfect answer.
I found a couple deer patterns and morphed them into a deer figure that I liked. Then I drew and cut out my template, traced them onto a thin piece of 1/4” Luan plywood, and had hubby cut them out on his jigsaw. After he cut them out I took back over. I painted them white, sprinkled a multi-colored gold, white and silver glitter on top, and I finished them off with cute little gingham bows and hangers.
If you make these ornaments and don’t want to share, I can relate! Just go ahead and decorate your tree with them.
Are you gearing up for the holidays? What is your favorite thing to do to prepare for them? Are you most happy shopping, baking, decorating your house, crafting, or none of the above.
THE JOY OF CAKING 
These will give Rudolph a run for his money! They are adorable…you are so creative. I love baking my way through the holiday season!
Love the ornaments Eileen! You are always so creative. Best wishes from both of us!
How lovely! We just cut our first tree ever this weekend and we’re in need of some lovely homemade ornaments. Thank you for sharing! Here’s to a wonderful first week of December!
I’m most happy with all of the above! Yesterday I pulled out all of my decorations and now they’re just staring at me! I will be in full gear by the end of the week. Love your ornaments!
