Cardinal Paper Mache Ornaments
I really wanted to make one more winter craft before the Valentine rush so I decorated two mini paper mache boxes. They are filled with microbeads to make them shakers, wrapped in paper and layered with torn pieces of old cards. I wrapped them in trim from old doilies and added an eyelet screw to hang a treasure. The final touch is my wonderful Aleene's glitter snow. They now adorn my winter berry wreath. I am on a cardinal kick this year (see my tag with alcohol inks also in Jan.)

Your cardinal ornaments are just beautiful! Just today we were driving out in the country and saw 5 red cardinals gathered together on the road. That was the first time I had ever seen so many together!
