Rusitic embroidery hoop ornaments from the Crazy Craft Lady

 

 Speaking as someone who has a large stash of small embroidery hoops in their craft closet, I am always looking for fun ways to use them, especially in Christmas crafting.  This idea from Aimee at The Crazy Craft Lady is a really good one!

Head on over to read about it: Rustic Embroidery Hoop Ornaments and to see more photos.  These round ornaments use a foil cookie sheet to resemble a "tin" backing.  One paints it gray to achieve this effect.  The embroidery hoop parts are stained brown to make them much more attractive than the plain wood.  Details are added with bottle brush trees, wood pieces, and black & white checked ribbon.

 
So pretty, don't you agree?   I'm thinking this might be a fun project to include in our annual crafting adventure with grandkids!  I've just pinned this to my Crafting for Christmas Pinterest board.  If you have a similar board, you might wish to do the same.
