Our
Iron Craft Challenge this week was to make something for the holidays. I recently signed up for an ornament swap on
Creating the Hive and this seemed like the perfect week to get started on my ornaments. I need to create 13 ornaments; 12 will go into sets for others and one will go to the organizer. In return, I will get my own set of 12 unique handmade ornaments. Cool, huh?
I bought some fun colored felt and played around a bit. I settled on making felt flowers. I was first inspired by this
project, although mine were a bit more colorful.
I sewed buttons on the front and ribbons on the back. What do you think?

My mom does cookie swaps at Christmas--I always enjoy that one:) I like your flower ornaments; they are very pretty and will easily fit in to any home.
