HELP!! Are you crafty?

[honeychile]

I am in charge of a Ladies Breakfast in early December, and in a sickness induced stupor, had the church secretary order those Do It Yourself Christmas Ornaments. Does anyone have any ideas of what type of craft items I should supply for these? SHOULD I supply the trimmings?

HELP!!

What exactly was in the order?

Do you have a link to what you ordered? Is this sorority related? Or another organization?

This is what was ordered: 4" DIY Large Clear Christmas Ball Ornaments

They're hinged, leaving two open sides. My ideas so far are providing various things like potpourri, some fake snow, small flowers, scriptures, or such to put inside. Provide some ribbon or braid for the hinge, glue, etc. One woman mentioned that she filled one with fake snow, a little top hat, small felt "carrot" and a few black beads for a "melting snowman".

I'm also thinking about letting the ladies know, in case they want to bring something to put in the globe.

This is for our monthly Ladies Prayer Breakfast in December; we'll have the next one in February.

Yes, that sounds perfect, the samples in the picture give good ideas with the foil garlands too. You can probably pick up things like jingle bells or tiny ornaments that they can be filled with also. In the section at Michael's where they sell things you can put in wreaths, you can probably find a lot of stuff that could be used. Floral department.
