Some ideas for ornaments are:Cookie clay ornamentsCinnamon ornamentsColor or cut an icon out and place in an ornament frameThe Crafty Crow has a fun list of kid-friendly ornamentsYou can pretty much "Orthodox" any ornament idea by adding an icon or something. Old catalogs are perfect for cutting out icons to use. They are the perfect size and there is usually a great selection. The Conciliar Press catalog is my favorite one. Whenever a new one arrives, I look forward to cutting up the old one and making something fun with the boys. :)If anyone has any questions just ask! I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!!
