So i'm done with this years ornaments. I make about 35-50 a year. this year was gnomes. what do i do for next year? NO folded star ones, they take too long to make that many. So do you all have a go to pattern? Is there a favorite one you made or received? any idea? I want to start now, when i can get fabrics on sale at JA's. I decorate my tree in aqua/white/silver. but make ornaments for everyone. Thanks everyone, and have a Merry Christmas

I have made little fans out of wide lace. Just pleat the lace fan like, tie on a ribbon and hot glue a little flower and I thought they were really pretty and don't take long to make.

We made yoyo Christmas trees and ball shaped with a bell at the bottom.

JoAnn's carries mini painting canvas, as does Walmart (I think). Can you cover them with Christmas fabric and add ribbon to make it look like a package?

I crocheted 250 ornaments 5 years ago. There are pattern books out there, but lots of free patterns available. My whole tree is snowflakes and glass icicles.

Here is a cute vintage ornament you could make. Mine is about 4 " long by 4" at the bottom. You could make it smaller. It is all yo yos.

Not sure where I saw this, probably doesn't fit the need of your #'s.
Reusing an old Christmas/winter themed men's necktie, and purchasing the small balsam frames from a craft store. You simply cut a piece of the tie to fit the frame, add a bow or any embellishment to the top. I was surprised how neat this was. Again this idea probably doesn't fit your number. Would be fun to start saving/collecting Christmas ties for the future.
