Jingle Bells Mini Wreath Ornament

Hey y'all! It's Christmas in July and time to get a jump start on Christmas and avoid the rush and stress by starting your Christmas crafts right now! Plan ahead with making handcrafted ornaments to decorate a tree or give as gifts!  And I'm keeping it real simple with a project that looks impressive but super easy to make with just a few items - A Jingle Bells Mini Wreath Ornament!

To make this ornament you only need: 

• Jingle bells - 
• Chenille pipe cleaners
• Ribbon and trim

Begin by threading the pipe cleaner through the top hole of the bell, leaving 1.5" on one end to twist when finish.  Fold end down to prevent bells from falling off. Continue adding bells and sliding them together as tight as possible.

One 12" pipe cleaner will hold 28 - 20mm or .75" jingle bells .  .  .

leaving enough pipe cleaner to twist close into a circle.

Next, make a bow with 2" loops - I used my Bowdabra and bow wire to make my bow .  .  . 

and used the bow wire to make a loop for hanging! But you can use twine or thin ribbon to make a loop, too! See, quick and easy! Have fun making lots for tree trimming, embellishing gifts and holiday decorating!
