Christmas Ornaments
Every year for Christmas I try my best to make a lot of my gifts (because I think I'm crafty, not necessarily because I'm cheap), but this year I was at a bit of a loss. So, I went onto my trusty Pinterest account to see what I though would be a neat project to make and I found this gem of an Etsy store. Feeling crafty, I decided that I would try and replicate the idea for my family.
Here's the mid-way stage:
Materials:
Here's the mid-way stage:
Materials:
- Modelling Clay
- Wire
- Sealant
- Paint
- Varnish
- Ribbon
- Paper to sketch on
Total Cost: $4.25/ornament (Assuming no materials on hand. I had some stuff laying around, and was able to purchase everything else that I needed at Dollarama, my actual cost was $1.15/ornament)
Time Commitment: 3-4 hours, depending on how fancy you get with the painting and details.
Now that it's dried, tonight's goal is to paint it. Hopefully it turns out well... because I have 4 others to make after if it does!

Avacado painting from Monica's kitchen
So after scouring the internet for a week or so to find an image of the painting of the avocado in Monica's kitchen in friends (seasons 1-4?ish) I decided to use the poor image from a screen capture I found to re-create it.
It didn't turn out exactly, but I'm pleased with the results.
