I don't know about you but I love hunting for unique vintage items to alter. I was lucky enough to find a couple of vintage bell mini tart pans in my travels. I decided to create ornaments from them. I sprayed the bell first with white spray paint and let it cure. From there I covered the outline of the bell and the inside with vintage tinsel. I picked an image from A Christmas Story and adhered it to a glass cabochon. I than adhered a vintage rhinestone brooch to the top of the image as a "frame". From here I just had fun adding bits and bobs....I did some bead work and added vintage jewelry pieces and let them hang from inside. I added heaps of red seam binding from Really Reasonable Ribbon as well. More vintage jewelry on top and a metal star and I was done. I just used a regular metal ornament hook adhered to the top. Would make a pretty present for someone this season. Or nestle among the boughs on your own tree this year! I had so much fun creating this...hope you enjoy! hugs, cherry
