Love those handmade ornaments ... especially if they won't break! This is not only easy .. but in my humble opinion ... it is beautiful. A great way to use scraps of ribbon, but if you don't have ribbon, use scraps of fabric. You can even "rip" the fabric if you would like a little more "rustic" look. To "rip", just make a snip in the side of the fabric but past the selvedge (if there is one - the selvedge is the tightly woven part at the edge). Then let it rip! Cut some lengths, but you really don't have to be too precise on each strip, because once you have tied them on the twig, you can trim them as long as you want. Perfect for kids!

Little Craft = Big Message!
A great time tested creche that uses such simple supplies ...
but conveys a big message! What a nice handmade gift for a
child to give to Grandparents or a Sunday School Teacher.
So easy to write the name of the child and the date on the back.
~ For unto us is born this day in the city of David,
a Savior who is Christ the Lord. ~

Faux Ribbon Candy
I remember growing up, and especially at my grandparent's house, seeing ribbon candy and thinking how pretty it was. It wasn't my favorite treat at the holidays but I would have a nibble from time to time. This is such an easy project and just like the candy ... pretty, too! I think it would be fun to create some "ribbon candy" with children & grandchildren!
