Since all the pondering about defacing the music book
I've had a great time making cards
in fact
many cards, which have all been to sent to friends and family.
Then I made these cones, which I remembered seeing last year
in my favourite Danish magazine.
This is my variation.
The cones can be hung from a beam
or placed on a side table with baubles popped inside,
or if you have a large tree they could look lovely hanging from a branch
Many years ago I used to make little cushions with vintage lace which I put on our bed
and I have lots of odd pieces left over from my collection .
So it was just the thing to add to the vintage theme of the sheet music.
I also had some clear baubles I'd bought a while ago
and wasn't quite sure what I was going to do with them !
I'd seen a few ideas in a magazine, using paper in different colours
cut into strips and placed inside. so that gave me the idea to use the music.
I still have a few other ideas for things to do, if I get time.
I hope you like what I chose to do with some of the pages from the book.
As Mr France & I will be spending the Christmas holiday with our daughter and our grandchildren
I haven't decorated a tree this year.
But I've had lots of enjoyment making these decorations, which I'll give to her and have the pleasure of seeing how she will display them in her home.

Barbara,
ReplyDeleteThese cards are so special because they are homemade. I'm glad to hear that you still send out cards. It is something that I love to do every year. The cones with the music sheets are so lovely, what a creative idea.
Merry Christmas, and I wish you peace and joy on this special day.
