Welcome to day 1 of 2018 series! I had so much fun making this humming bird. i think I will make a few different styles of this one because it may just disappear on the tree. I used filigrees from Butterbee Scraps and bling I had on hand. I will post the tutorial below. I hope to see you for day 2 coming soon!
I am a crafter, lover of bling, wife of 26 years, mother of 3 beautiful grown children, and Nana to 4 amazing grand children. I also love camping, nature, fishing, crochet, drawing, painting, and taking naps!!! Welcome to my site.

Hi .. I make a lot of ornaments and have for years. Some were ceramic with glaze or painted and sealed. I made bunches of different angels.. cloth, wood, polymer clay, and flowers. I haven’t seen many flower angels .. I used a rose or tulip stem and pulled the flowers off. I then used a 6in pipe cleaner, looped the end tight and ran it through the rose then put an 18 -25mm bead on, something for the halo, and used leftover cleaner to make my hanger. You can bring the flowers any way you would like. Fir wings you can use a bow, butterfly, wings or a heart shape turned with point down. Two different size hearts and a circle can also make an angel. Large one with the point up, smaller one for wings, glued to the bigger one and the circle for the head.

I love watching your videos. I am a new subscriber. Joined this year. I am going to make some of the ornaments but I have to build up my stash. I do a lot of different crafts but all my stuff is in storage. Haven’t been able to get them out yet. Hopefully in the spring. The hummingbird ornament is just beautiful. So are all the other ones you make. You are very talented and I hope to learn alot from you. God bless and have a safe and merry holiday.
