If you read my blog regularly, you know that this year I have posted many glass ornament tutorials. Well, I have a new one! This ornament is for Kate's piano teacher, Mrs. Elliott. I was putting together a basket of goodies for her, and thought it needed something more. Then, I thought about how much she loves music and how appreciative we are that she has blessed our daughter with the gift of reading music. So, I thought, why not an ornament filled with sheet music. I have already made a Game Ticket in a Glass Ornament, so I just followed the same steps.
First, I looked up "Jingle Bells Sheet Music" on Google. I printed it out on cream colored card stock, then cut it into strips. (I only used the strips of sheet music, and left the words out.) Next, I twisted the strips around a pencil and stuffed them into the top of the ornament. Finally, I put the lid back on and tied cream and black ribbon to the top. I think it looks gorgeous!
If you are looking for some very nice, but inexpensive gift ideas for teachers, neighbors, friends, or family members, just take a look around Mom 4 Real. I have posted tons of easy ideas using glass ornaments as well as some other cute and easy ideas!
