Sweet little wooden sled ornaments to craft

Time for another craft, since the popsicle sticks and paint are likely still out from the last project!

Over the years, I've seen lots of these little sled ornaments made from popsicle sticks.  But these Popsicle Stick Sleds, from Jenn at Clean & Scentsible, are definitely a cut above the ordinary.

This project uses both the regular and mini sizes of craft sticks.  The regular size sticks, stained brown, become the sled's runners.  Most of these sleds that I have seen use paper clips for the runners, which is of course more realistic.  But I really like the look of these stained brown runners.

I also love the embellishments Jenn chose to use.  The natural looking greenery, along with the jingle bells, is such a classic woodsy look.  I have some tiny hemlock cones in my crafting stash, and I think some of those would work beautifully with the faux greenery to trim these sleds.

Yes, I'm planning to craft some of these.  How about you?

    1. Yes, that would be lovely. One year someone gave me a sled ornament (the type with the paper clip runners). It's painted red and has my name on it in silver.
