Creating time to be together can be difficult, but that's what the holiday season is all about. With The Beadery's beaded Ornament Kit you can bring everyone together after dinner and make 100 ornaments to decorate your tree and home with! Super simple and fun to create, show your family just how fun crafting can be. Instead of battling the lines at department stores and home goods stores, you will be cozy by the fire sipping hot chocolate with your family while creating beautiful decorations.

Inside the kits you will find materials and patterns for five different ornaments: 12 Victorian Baubles, 16 Wreaths, 24 Snowmen, 24 Candy Canes, and 24 Christmas Trees. With this many options, you can decorate your trees and send some ornaments to your neighbors and coworkers! This would also be a cute accompaniment for your Christmas cards; when you go to mail your cards, attach one of these ornaments to the corner for a fun surprise when the recipients open them up.

My favorite thing about this kit is that you can use the ornaments not only as a tree decoration, but as a sweater decoration. The ornaments you make are on the small side, so while you may want large decorations for your tree, they are perfect for a sweater. During the holiday season there are a million and one Christmas sweater parties, but I can never find one that I really like. This ornament kit is perfect for decorating your own, and with so many ornament options, your sweater will be more unique than anyone else's. Sometimes the parties call for "ugly" Christmas sweaters, and for these it would be a fun idea to hang the ornaments from your sleeves like you are a tree.
