Paper Ornaments

This year the LSS where I work, Masterpiece Memories is putting a decorated tree in the Festival of Trees. This is a huge fundraiser for the local Junior League. Our tree theme is "Cut and Paste" and all ornaments on the tree are made of scrapbook paper. This is a fun, but time consuming project! Kim put lots of hours into this and our tree looks amazing! I made hundreds of paper beads, sealed and glittered them and then strung them for the garland on the tree. Let me just say, there is glitter in places where glitter shouldn't be!!!


Above are the last batch of paper beads that I made for the tree. They are so colorful,
shiny and pretty!!



These were fun to make too, and I put beads on some of them. They didn't work well on the tree for the Festival, so we'll use them on the store tree. Great way to use up left over
Christmas scrapbook paper.

Here are a few of my favorite ornaments that made it on the tree. The folded paper wreaths are amazing and the little paper ribbon bows are just too cute!


And TA-DA!! The finished tree. So cute!!
Let the Christmas Season begin!
