Learn The Basic Skills to Create Unique Pieces of Art
I know, I know. I am creating a major holiday season faux pas by talking about this upcoming holiday prior to Thanksgiving dinner being served and the leftovers stored away. But, I’m a planner! And a mother of two! I like to have some projects lined up for the Thanksgiving Holiday weekend (you like how I made a darn good excuse for breaking the rules!).
“You don’t have to have the same blood to be family.”
Now let’s get to some fun! Be inspired by the following four ornaments. Each project has how-to information as well as the Nunn Design findings you will need to create each project.

Yours truly created this one (I’m Becky by the way). I’m a huge angel fan and love images of the Madonna, so that is what I chose. But once again, the image is limited only by your imagination. Maybe a movie ticket stub from when you and your husband had that evening out that you so want to remember. Or that quick shot that you took of you and your girlfriend at a summer time picnic? See what I mean, the options are limitless!
