Handmade Holiday: DIY Twine Ornaments

Currently, my Christmas tree has a lot of shiny and sparkly gold ornaments. So, it's got the green and gold colors from my theme mentioned here, but I needed to add some brown to really make my rustic theme complete. Easy solution: add twine. 

A lot of my DIY holiday projects, which I will continue to share, involve reusing materials. Makes sense, right? It keeps the costs down and it's easy to make things matchy matchy. 

Choose a starting point on your foam ball, add a dollop of glue and stick on the twine.

Wrap the twine around the ball adding a little more glue here and there. 

(It is not necessary to add the glue every time you wrap the twine around, although I did find that I needed to more as I got closer to the bottom)

Add wire, ribbon or make a loop with your left over twine to create a hook.

Hang finished ornament on the tree.

Step back from the tree and admire your handy work.
