Chilly days

Brr! It's getting chilly here in Wisconsin! It's about 44 outside right now! This means that I'm staying inside! And what better thing to do than crafts?? I'm working on Christmas stuff now as I've decked the house too full capacity for fall. And I like Christmas better anyway. 

One of my aunts owns a nursing home and each year they do a craft fair. As I'm out of school this year I've had a bit more time on my hands so I've actually been working on crafts to sell there! I've been working on several different projects but here's is the first completed project: 

I saw these about a month ago at Shopko for $5.99 a piece. I mainly thought of how to make them so I could put them on one of (my three...yes three) Christmas trees. Then I decided to share the cuties and sell them at the craft sale. These are so simple!


Supplies needed:
Black paint-I had this on hand
Orange paint-I had this on hand
Paint brushes
Red pipe cleaners-$1 for a pack (of around 50) at DT
Red pom poms-$1 for a pack (of around 50) at DT 
Glass ornaments-6 for $3.99 at Fleet Farm  ( I think you can get them for $2.44 at Walmart)
Fake snow-$3.49 for 3.5 quarts at Fleet Farm ( I didn't even use half of this bag and I made a dozen of them) 

So the price was $13.47 for 12 ornaments! Or $1.12 a piece. And I still have most of the pipe cleaners and pom poms left and half of the fake snow! Can you say good deal?? And they're adorable aren't they? I can't get enough of them!
