I did several last year for Tori's grandmas and her preschool teachers. They loved them! This year I plan to make more for other friends and family.<br /><br />I bought several Asian-inspired ornaments from Pier 1 last year after Christmas. And I plan to scope them out this year, too. I just love a bargain, especially on expensive Christmas decor. <br /><br />Have a happy crafting weekend. . .Chris is watching the kids on Saturday so that I can go scrapbook at my favorite haunt. Yippee!!!<br />Cindy<br />Thanks for the tip on making my our new blog beautiful, too. I will be making the change soon!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700569948308566867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266226909419258314.post-31639515531887556222009-12-04T09:11:30.531-05:002009-12-04T09:11:30.531-05:00I swear you are a super-woman!!!

Not cheap at 10.95 a piece but worth buying a couple. We had the choice of 4 different ones here in TX.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17368393567740129262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266226909419258314.post-92030027896290011592009-12-04T01:18:49.503-05:002009-12-04T01:18:49.503-05:00You are so creative Kim!

My China girl ornament is one of my favorites too. <br />I have my Chinese themed ornaments packed away in a very special place... where I can't find them!!! Good grief, this whole moving thing has done a number on my Christmas decor.. not to mention the much smaller space. I haven't any place for a second tree. I hope to transform my Christmas tree into a CNY tree... if I can find my beloved ornaments.Shannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741848217261915716noreply@blogger.com
