Things You Can Make With Old Christmas Tree Ornaments


Don't throw away those old, paint-chipped Christmas tree ornaments!

 Instead, why not think about displaying them in a different way, or upcycling
them into something new like one of the pretty displays shown below?

  2. Too cool! I love old ornaments. I keep some on my chandelier year round! I packed and shipped 15 dozen today..I'm wrapped out! I love the shabby old ones best. One word of caution about the "vase" one, if you add water to the inside of an old one, all the silvering will wash out!

    1. I've gotten into the habit of always hitting the holiday section at thrift shops and rummage sales - always bags of old ornaments - I find them off season and stash them away for holiday crafts.
