Making Christmas Decorations

Earlier in the month, I finally convinced Spencer to make some Christmas ornaments with me (and he actually enjoyed it once he started – gasp!). We filled 6 clear glass ornaments with rolled up strips of Christmas patterned paper, and then finished them off with some ribbon (a quick ornament idea that's become very popular with scrapbookers).

Spencer was on a roll so he started to make a paper chain garland from construction paper. His goal was to make the longest in the world. He didn’t quite make it but he did get one long enough to decorate his tree!

The photo of the single ornament is one Spencer made (he gave one to his teacher, has wrapped one for Matt and put the other on his tree in his room). The three in the tray are the ones I did.
