Glad Tidings to you! If you have a moment to stop and look, I'd like to show you some ornaments I made as gifts for a few folks.
Couldn't find 'frosted' berries at the craft store in November, so I bought a 6-foot berry garland for half off (it came to $7.00), plucked them off and glittered them myself.
The wooden frames were $1.00 each, and I painted them with shimmery Martha Stewart craft paints. I really like those paints! I punched some Martha holly leaves and branches and gathered the frosted berries, then stamped Girl Land Tea Cup by Webster's Pages / Unity on white scrap cardstock. They were overstamped with snowflakes and sentiments.
Hope you're doing well with your Christmas preparations!
