COtM is a fabulous source of inspiration when it comes to making ornaments. The photos show each project in its final stage, a few have diagrams to show folding technique, and for those projects using a pattern, one is provided (although you'll have to enlarge at times). The projects are great for beginner and intermediate crafters as the directions mostly involve glue, ribbon, beads, glitter and paint. There are a few advanced projects but those mostly deal with oven and/or air dry clay. These are great rainy-day projects the whole family can enjoy because the instructions tell you all the items you will need and most are only 4 step processes. Finally, for those who feel their place is in a hardware store rather than a craft store, there are even projects for you! Various non-traditional elements are used to make some of the lovely ornaments too. Well worth a purchase.

I was pleased when I got this book. It contains some really cute ornaments to make and they are so original. I love to give away Christmas Tree ornaments with my other hand-made gifts. Many of these would be great to tie up with the bow on the top of your box or gift bag. If you want to be original give this book a try.

the book is great, i will put the ideas to good use. Thank you for the great find
