    What a lovely idea. I may have to give this some thought and see what I can come up with.

    Here are some pics of past ornaments...I love crafting of any kind!! but was thinking, something with fabric. :)
    How about making jo-jo's out of Christmas fabric and a shiny button or Christmas pin in the hole in the middle. Our church made these and gave them out in the neightborhood. They turned out really cute.

    How about a set with the nativity symbols? OR the emblem for the college their parents are expecting them to attend?

    I have a ton of links for sewn & quilted ornaments on my personal website. There are some really cool ones on it. I keep adding to the list whenever I see new tutorials...
    Maybe you will find some ideas for next year...

    I would like to know how you did the balls? They are all neat! I have a lot of little friends that like anything I make for them. My sister in law always wants something I make.

    I've made these for several years now - always seem to get a good response, and they're very easy (and relatively inexpensive!).
