Any suggestions would be great. I need a unique ornament for a swap in a few days. I racked my brain for one to make and poured over the internet but I can't seem to find just the right one to make. I would love some input from all of you. I would like it to be one of those "oh wow" kind of ornaments.

Did you look on this board, check the Christmas ornament swap pictures. You might get some ideas from it.

I just checked out a book from the library called Japanese Kimekomi, Fast, Fun, and Fabulous Fabric Handballs by Barbara B. Suess and Kathleen M. Hewitt

These are made out of styrofoam balls, fabric and some type of decorative trim. These are all gorgeous, fun and fast to make :D:D:D
