Noel Ornaments

November 9, 2015~ Christmas, DIY and craft projects

It’s monday and you know what that means right?! Another round of the Canadian home decor and DIY bloggers’ christmas DIY gifts. Remember my peppermint vodka last week? Well this week I’m offering my noel ornaments.

I fell in love with the shape of these orbs and knew that I had to do something fun with them. I’m working more pink and rose gold into our decor this year, and these ornaments are the perfect vehicles for that!

It’s a super easy DIY, all you need is three complimentary paint colours. I went with gold, pink and red.

Materials list

3 complimentary paint colours
paper mache ornaments

Instructions

Step 1 – Paint one segment and its opposite segment in the same colour

Step 2- Repeat step 1 but with another colour

Step 3 – Repeat step 1 but with the final colour

Step 4 – Hand paint whatever greeting you wish! I chose “noel” because we live in French Canada so some good old french never hurt anyone.

Step 5 (Optional) – paint the year you’re giving the ornament on one of the segments. It’s an extra way to mark the year and place it in time many Christmas from now.

Make sure you touch up any lines to make sure everything is clean and good to go!

This guy even made an appearance in our Christmas bar cart styling from last week’s DIY Starburst Wreath!

The future is female ❤️ On this #international The future is female ❤️ On this #internationalwomensday I am reminded of how far we still have to go. I fight for workplace equality, and the freedom to not have to use an emoji or exclamation point in work emails, for fear of sounding “angry.” COVID has laid bare the fragility of women’s place in the workforce, and set back women of colour in the workplace (who are more likely to have been laid off due to the pandemic.) I’m not entirely sure this is a year to celebrate. it’s a year to look at the situation we’re in collectively, and make sure we’re not leaving women behind as we *hopefully* eye a return to some normalcy. Access to affordable childcare and agency in households dynamics, are key to making sure women don’t get left behind. What are you fighting for on this #internationalwomensday ?

You know what I love? People who dress as colourfu You know what I love? People who dress as colourfully, as I design ✨ My friend Tabitha @tabithasewer  makes the most amazing clothes, many of which I’d gladly wear if I knew how to use a clothing pattern. She sells her own line of buttons and patterns, so if you’re in the market to make your own bold and beautiful clothing items, she’s your girl. Have you had a chance to follow her yet?

That one time I made a desk 📌 This #ikeahack is That one time I made a desk 📌 This #ikeahack is one of my faves. It uses two RAST dressers and a desk top, as well as a few other pieces (all listed on the blog - link in stories). Being without a desk at the moment means that I’m daydreaming about my next one.
