Handmade Ornaments for All OccasionsI have been making handmade ornaments for years. Most of the ornaments on this site are my own original creations. Others were inspired by ornaments made by others and I added my own personal touches. Click on the photos or links below to find ideas, instructions, and photos for all kinds of wonderful handmade ornaments.While you're looking, keep in mind that homemade ornaments have many more uses than just decorating a Christmas tree! Although I do make more Christmas ornaments than any other kind, I also really enjoy making other holiday ornaments too. Halloween ornaments are especially fun to make.
Also remember it's easy to adapt some seasonal ornaments to be appropriate for other holidays or occasions. Just change the colors or ribbons!

Plaster Christmas Ornaments There is something very special about homemade ornaments.
I still have some I made more than thirty years ago, and many more that loved ones made for me over the years. It touches my heart to pull out these treasures each year and reminisce about making - or receiving - each one.
I enjoy making ornaments by myself, but sharing the experience by making ornaments with family and friends creates lasting, precious memories.
No matter what type of ornaments you make, you will be rewarded with wonderful memories of the fun times you had making them. And you also will plant special memories in the hearts of those who receive these thoughtful gifts.
Handcrafted ornaments make great hostess gifts and party favors.
It has always been my experience that people genuinely are delighted to receive them. So many of my friends still remember many years later exactly which ornaments they received from me and when.
