Trim-a-Tree Series: Easy Tinsel Ornaments

Happy Thanksgiving!  I know many families wait until the day after Thanksgiving to decorate for Christmas. (Obviously  I am not patient enough to share that notion)  In the event you have not decorated  yet, here is a VERY easy and cheap project...

     I am  sure you  have all seen the many assortments of ugly that these ornaments have been subjected to.  They have been filled with potpourri, painted in marble pattern... I could go on and on...

    Might I suggest this as an alternative.  It is cheap, easy, and  you can  change the color from year to year. 

 

Step 1: cut a 6" section of Tinsel 

Step 2: Remove Ornament Cap

Step 3: Insert Tinsel 

Step 4: Replace Ornament Cap

 That's it,  your done! 

It adds visual texture, and some sparkle without going overboard.
