No Embroidery. recycled aluminum drink cans. A little paint after crushing, a little felt, hot glue, knitting yarn, & this & that. How do you like? They hang on tree as ornaments.

Thanks Migs. I love crafts. Been making things out of nothing for yrs. Just give me some glue, egg cartons, fabric scraps, this & that & I'll come up with something. You should have seen the Christmas trees I made out of key punch cards(something the younger generation doesn't know about lol) when I worked at Robins AFB back in the 60s. I've still got a stack of those cards somewhere. *4U

Cute! Your version is much cuter than the ones
I used to see at craft shows years ago. Your aluminum
cans project reminds me of a "Redneck windchime" I saw
at a craft show where they hung several cans from a wooden sign that read "Redneck Windchimes". The shocker
was that people were actually buying them. Had to be for gag gifts for holiday parties or something. LOL
Do you make your Santa's to sell them? I would think they would sell better than the windchime. :)

No shari, I don't make anything to sell. I just love to make things & embroidery. If smeone asks me to do something for them I will but seems like I'm always behind simply doing things for friends & fmly. thanks *
