November Craft Hoarders Anonymous Blog Hop

Welcome to the November Craft Hoarders Anonymous Blog Hop.

You should be coming from Debbie’s Blog. After visiting with me, hop on over to Donna’s blog next. To start at the beginning of the hop, and for a full blog hop list, go to Gloria’s Blog.

You will find a video tutorial for the mulberry flower ornaments below along with another video tutorial on how I created the pretty bow topper.

The ornaments were made to coordinate with the October and November Ribbon Club Assortments from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

There is a special going on through the end of November for US residents to begin their subscription with the October/November combo pack for the special introductory price of just $17.00.

The October assortment has 9 styles and a total of 17 yards of ribbon and trim and the November assortment has 9 styles and a total of 18 yards of ribbon. Each monthly assortment is a color or holiday themed assortment of ribbon. What a fun way to build your ribbon stash and try new ribbon styles.

The ornament below is the one I created in the video. This one uses a little over 80 20mm Open Roses. I think you could get away with four 20-packs with careful spacing.

This ornament was created with one 100-pack of Sweetheart Flowers. On this one I used the white with red center sweetheart flowers to coordinate with the October Ribbon Club Assortment, but any of the colors would be beautiful.

This ornament below was also made with 20mm Open Roses and this one was made using the color palette from the November Ribbon Club Assortment.

The ribbon ornament toppers below were made on the EK Tools Bow Making Template (which has been sitting on the shelf with all the other items I ‘had to have and never used’ for years) using ribbon from each of the Ribbon Club Assortments. The centers were finished off with larger Mulberry Roses. I have a video tutorial below on how to make these as well.

Your ornament is amazing, and I cannot imagine how much fun it must have been to make! Exceeded only, to be sure, by the fun of hanging it or sharing as a gift.
Thanks for sharing at Jo’s Scrap Shack! Blessings,

These are delightful – and I appreciate the tutorial! I especially like the one with roses – it reminds me of the holiday ‘kissing balls’ that were popular in my childhood. Your ‘toppers’ are the perfect finishing touch!

Thanks for sharing!
