xmas bells ornaments

back and front
a few weeks back sent a couple of these ornaments to a friend, she liked them so much, i am making another one for her, and one each for her two daughters,they will have black & white scanned photos on the front (xmas tree paper side) i will also add a clearly yours icon..to match the Paper - K & Co's Peppermint Twist - by Brenda Walton, with a tiny hole on the top, and a glittery thread to dangle them by, these make nice tree ornaments.
