I love ornaments with a natural look. If they are cheap and easy to make, all the better.
To make these beeswax ornaments, you need:
- a candle made of a plate of beeswax rolled together
- cookie cutters
- jute
- evergreens and faux pearls to decorate
1. Make a cut at the beginning of the roll (because it will be slightly melted to hold the candle together). Now you can easily unroll the candle.
2. Use cookie cutters to cut out ornaments.
3. Use a needle or skewer to poke a hole into the ornaments and thread through some jute.
4. Knot on a small twig of evergreen or a pearl to decorate some ornaments
Ain´t they pretty?

ReplyDeleteThank you, I just did!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cool what a great idea! Christmas decorations should be a bit personal I think and these are just that :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, I think personal is way more important than perfect ; )
ReplyDeleteI just came from Show me what ya got. I've never seen your blog. My son and I were looking for something he could make to give at Christmas, just little things. This looks great. Thanks for the idea.
