DIY Music Christmas Ornament

I don't know if you know this about me, but I love music. I started playing the piano at the age of 3. I've played ever since. Music has always held a very special place in my heart. When I was little, anytime I was sad or having a bad day, I would sit at the piano and just play. Within a few minutes, my mood was always a little better and my burdens a little lighter. To this day, music still touches my soul with it's power to move people.



I've always wanted to do a music themed Christmas tree.  I saw one at The Festival of Trees here in Utah last year and LOVED it. So when my sister asked me to help her make homemade Christmas ornaments last week, I knew I HAD to make a music themed ornament. We had to make 40 ornaments in one night, so I also knew I wanted it to be SUPER EASY and not very inexpensive. I created THIS little beauty. I love it SO much. You can use any sheet music inside you want. I was making 20 ornaments, so I printed off 5 sheets of 4 different Christmas songs. I downloaded them for free online {click here for the website}. The rest of the supplies you need are clear ornaments {I bought mine from Michaels - use a coupon!}, scissors, ribbon, bakers twine. That's all! The tutorial is below. Get your craft on!
