Christmas Crafternoon: DIY Felt Candy Cane Ornaments

DIY Felt Candy Cane Ornaments 
Hello Sewing friends! Today we are making candy canes.  Red and white striped candy canes always make me think about Christmas. We always hang candy canes on the Christmas tree, sometimes they are real and sometimes not. For the past several years we have had these lovely felt candy cane ornaments on the tree. My mom made them and I think they are just so cute. Do you know whose Christmas Tree they would look great on? YOURS! 

Little Flock of Bullfinches

It's December!! Oh my, we haven't decorated a thing but tonight will be the night we start.  We are going to put up our tree and I'll let the kids cover it in their handmade ornaments. We have a smaller 2nd tree that I have high hopes of covering with pinterest/blog inspired ornaments.  I'll pull it off if I have time.  Have you seen this adorable Bullfinch ornament tutorial?? I couldn't resist making a few.

As I snapped the picture I realized I forgot the eyes. Oops! Half the fun was dumping out my scrap bin and using bits of my favorite fabrics. I wrapped them up and gave away few as presents to friends at our Thanksgiving gathering.

My plan is to make a few more of these and then next on my list are these adorable houses.  I must make them!!
What about you? Are you making any handmade ornaments this year?

BTW: I'm thinking this up to these Parties! Monday FundaySkip to my LouShow off Saturday, and Block Party
