You could push a pin through from the back to help locate the hole so you could see it from the front. Lovely ornaments!!
Now why didn’t I think of that. Brilliant idea ❤️
I think I’ll have the grandchildren make some of these using photos of Christmases past. It’ll be a wonderful activity for those long days waiting for Santa to come. We’ll hang them on the tree -they’ll all be at the bottom of the tree since the children are still small. I know it will be an extra beautiful tree! Thank you so much, Nina, for giving me the idea!
That’s a lovely idea Kathy, and I’m sure they will love making them 💕
It's always so nice that you give alternatives to the products you use because I don't always have the same product as you. Thanks! 👍😄
Thanks Marina, glad the alternatives are helpful 💕
I really.love listening to and watching you.
Your voice and what you made are wonderful...so pretty.
💜👋 Camille 🇦🇺
Thank you so much Camille 💕
Now where did I,put my wood slices 🤔 fab video, thanks Nina xx
Thanks Debbie. Hope you find them 🎄💕
Good morning nina, these are very pretty ornaments... it is happening, slowly thinking of the festive season, for me it always starts with lighting candles in the evening, thinking about when to put up the tree and startiing to create christmascards. I already see houses that have christmaslights, a bit early, but deep in my heart I love it, it brightens the sometimes dull, grey days of november. I wish you a good sunday and alovely week, love and hugs lenaxxx
Good morning Lena. We have just returned home from our Friend’s daughter’s wedding in a beautiful old Abbey. It looked very festive with all the pretty fairy lights and decorations on the tables at breakfast this morning, My decorations always go up on the 1st December, so not long to wait now. Although I am busy like you preparing cards and ornaments. It is a beautiful crisp sunny day here. Wishing you a wonderful week . Love and hugs, Nina 💕 xxxxx
I like the waxy look to them, I thought the paper would crinkle but it didn’t 😮💨😍🧚♀️
Thanks Purple Fairy. I think it’s because I sprayed the back of the paper with water first. I don’t know why it works, but it does 💕🎄 x
Ooh,they are abit dif! Looked so different with that chalky paint 😁x
Thanks Lynda. I was originally going to use treasure gold, but thought the white might be a bit softer. I’m so pleased with these 💕 xxx
I have certainly enjoyed your video as per. Thank you xxx
Awwww,n thanks so much Eve 💕 xxxx
These are lovely. I actually like the floral pictures combined with the festive greetings--it's very Victorian.
These ornaments are lovely, Nina.
Thanks Cheryl. Glad you like them 💕
I really like the way these turned out with the white wax. It looks so soft and festive. Thank you for the tutorial.
Thanks Lisa, it adds a wonderful soft touch doesn’t it ❤️
Great project, loved your wooden discs!thanks Nina!
Thanks so much Katharina 💕
Thank you so much Nina, I really really enjoyed watching you create these stunning and gorgeous little tree decorations. What a brilliant idea 💡 that is. And Stamperia paper is really really stunning too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Thanks Mags, yes I love all of the Stamperia papers. Have a wonderful week 💕 xxxx
Lovely, Nina. They are beautiful, indeed. On the desk, they looked a bit "Aunty Fan" as mum used to call things she saw as old fashioned but when you placed them on the wood circles made them stand out gorgeous. Plenty of scope there to put a lot of different images on them. Thank you for sharing. x
Thanks Pam. I think the white wax gives them a more modern look too. Really pleased with how these turned out 💕
They look so pretty Nina, yes I agree that scrapbooking paper makes it so much easier, I loved how they turned out and will have to have a go at doing some of these. Thank you for sharing, take care, Ali xx
Thanks Ali, I’m really pleased with how these turned out 💕 x
Beautiful ornaments Nina, I just found a few paper coasters that might work okay for this project. Thanks so much, have a wonderful day.
Paper coasters will be perfect. Happy Creating 💕🎄🎄🎄
Love these a perfect decoration x☃️👍❤️
Thanks Janette. Glad you like them 🎄💕
Oh these are so pretty, Nina. I suppose they could be covered with Christmas cards saved from last year too. I'm always reluctant to throw out the really pretty ones. Hm, you've given me lots to think about -as ever! :-D Great project!!
Absolutely love how you have used last years Christmas cards Edna. What a great idea. Using cards or paper takes the step of pre gessoing out of the equation which you need to do if using napkins. So much quicker and easier in my opinion 💕
That's a brilliant idea! I love recycling and repurposing.
So am I reluctant to toss them. I'd like to preserve them,
somehow.
I think these are so lovely! Using the wax on the front of the image and then adding the distress at the edges again really made them look like aged ornaments that have been passed down over generations. Thank you for the inspiration! Janet 🤗👍💕🌲
Thanks Janet. I’m really pleased with how they’ve turned out 💕
Gorgeous ornaments! Love the look with the white wax and the rustic twine is perfect to set them off.
Thanks Susan, glad you like them 💕
Beautiful! Love the effect of the chalk wax. Lovely ornaments💕
Thanks Sherry, I do too 💕
Love them Nina and easy to do.Have a great week
Thanks Christie. Glad you like them and I hope you will give them a try 💕
Absolutely beautiful Nina. I’m going to try these with some old Christmas cards. Love ❤️ love
Your videos and projects are always lovely Nina, tfs 😊👌
Thanks Diana, glad you enjoyed it 💕
These are gorgeous Nina xxx 🌲🎄🎄
Thanks Annie, glad you like them 🎄 xxxxx
They are gorgeous ornaments! What a beautiful job you've done with them! 🎄🌹
Thanks Lora, I think they’ll look really pretty on the tree 💕🎄
How lovely are these ornaments! Thank you so much for sharing your process. I can’t wait to make some for our tree.
They are just so beautiful!
Thanks Marilyn, glad you like them 💕
Love these!
Hi Nina, once again you've come up with a great idea. These are absolutely beautiful. I do like the Stamperia paper it's feminine and pretty. The waxing gives a wonderful finish to the project. Definitely going to make some, I have some wooden disks. Thanks for sharing 👍💛🤗
Thanks Stephenne, I love the look the white wax gives these, so pretty. Happy Creating 💕🎄
these are so pretty- I think I have these in my closet somewhere- I must try it- tfs
Thanks Kathy. I hope you find them 🎄
These are just beautiful. I'm looking for ornament tutorials for my Woodland themed Christmas tree. These will help out a lot. Thanks for the inspiration! ❤❤❤
So cute and thank you for the step by step instructions that were easy to understand.
Love it all
stunning
Yet again Nina you have inspired Me. I have little rounds of wood like this left over from our daughter's wedding reception. I have made some coasters for them but will now just have to make a Christmas tree decoration for their first Christmas. It will be brilliant. I have napkins from their wedding to decoupage. Thank you again 👏👏👏❤️
That’s a lovely idea Ann ❤️
These Ornaments turned out so pretty, love this project!!! Thank you! 😍👏🏻👍🏻🎅🏼
Thanks so much Almut 💕 xo

OMG SOOOO CUTE
Nina the ornaments are beautiful! I love them! Thank you for sharing❤️
Thanks so much Tammy 💕

I love these! I’m going to look for some of those wood slices! Thanks so much for demonstrating this diy! 💗
Thanks Amanda, they’re pretty aren’t they. I’m sure somewhere like hobby lobby will have them 🎄🎄🎄
These are really lovely. I can't wait to have a go! 😊
These are lovely.
Thanks Mel 💕.
These are so lovely! The paper patterns are so Victorian! As usual, love your work! Have an excellent week! TFS. 💌🙏👍
Thanks Evelyn. I too love the Victorian look of these ❤️
this is a beautiful ornament🥰💕💕
Thank you so much 💕
Ooh I love these, simple and easy to make, yet very effective.
I love the wax, but not sure if I'd be able to resist putting a bit of glitter on these beauties. 😅
Thanks Eline. I did toy with the idea of putting glitter on them. Now I’m thinking perhaps I should 💕🎄
They are really pretty and will look special on your tree, love that wax really finishes them beautifully 😊😊💖💖🎄
Thanks Elaine. I love making home made Christmas decorations 💕🎄🎄🎄
Absolutely lovely, Nina. I can see Alex wanting these for his tree!
Haha 🤣. I shall have to see if I can make some that match the birds he ran away with in his hair ❤️
@@NinaRibenaMixedMedia Alex sound like fun and awesome taste. 🖤
Love this AND I just purchased a bunch of small wood rounds!!>
Happy Creating ❤️
I just love all of the ornaments you made, I wasn’t sure about the white wax but, you’re right, it really picks them up! Perfect prompt as we draw closer to the holidays, so many possibilities without a lot of time spent. Thank you for another inspiring video and have a great week!💕🇨🇦
Thanks Cindy. I was originally intending on using treasure gold, but decided on the wax instead as I thought it would be softer with the pink 💕🎄
Very pretty decorations! My mom would of loved them❤️🧡💛🍁🍂
Thanks Sue, I’m really pleased with them 💕
Beautiful!
Thanks so much Heather 💕
So pretty.
Thanks so much Lucy 💕
Love them! They could be used as gift tags with a holiday sentiment written on the back. Or date it for an heirloom tree decoration… so many possibilities! Jan
Thanks Jan. Love your ideas for these 💕
Beautiful project! What a great idea. I have some of those round Stamperia pieces and always did struggle with what to do with them😊❤️
Thanks Martha. The round ones worked perfectly for these slices 💕
So pretty! I’ve been using my bead reamer for the holes. Thank you for sharing ❣️
Thanks Joan. Great idea to use a bead reamer ❤️
These are beautiful~
Thank you so much 💕
I love this paper pad from Stamperia 😍😍I’m not a big fan of pink papers, but I am obsessed with these papers. You made gorgeous decorations! Have a wonderful week😘x
Hello Antonio. It’s a beautiful pad isn’t it, even for those than don’t really like pink. My son loved these too. Hope you have a great week 💕 xo
Beautiful x
Thank you 💕
Nina these are beautiful! I just picked up some of those wood pieces on clearance! Now I know what to do with them...Thank You!🥰
Thanks Jovi, glad you like them. Happy Creating 💕
These turned out gorgeous Nina. I just might have to get some of those wooden discs. =^^=
Thanks Debbie, I have also seen them in packs of three for a couple of £’s in places like The Range and The Works 💕
Sooooo beautiful 🤩🤩
Thanks so much Rona. Glad you like them 💕
Just gorgeous, Nina. In my opinion, the roses are just as Christmas as anything else, after all we have heard of the Christmas rose. Anyway, your project turned out quite wonderfully.
Thanks so much Ellie 💕🌹
Beautiful ❣️❣️
Thank you so much Cathey 💕
Those are so beautiful!! I was looking for something to decorate a little tree that I bought from a after Christmas sale. Love your channel. Thank you.
Thanks Sindy. Glad this has given you some ideas for your small tree 🎄🎄🎄
These are just so lovely tfs Nina...Kia Kaha...
Thanks so much Maggie ❤️
Very lovely Nina. I wasn't sure about the wax at first because I'm a purist when it comes to wooden furniture [no paint please], but it turned out looking like it was frosted with snow. Super cute! Very inspirational as always.
Thanks Sue, it’s nice that you can still see the beautiful wood grain 💕
Absolutely love these! So simple but very effective. Some glitter around the edges with some tiny fairy lighting would make them look fab on the Christmas tree, don't you think, Nina?
Thanks Veronica. They look so pretty hanging on the tree and the white wax really adds a beautiful touch, perhaps I will try adding a bit of glitter ❤️
Pretty
Thanks Janet 💕
👍👍
❤❤❤
Hi Nina! I love these ornaments. The chalk wax us a beautiful touch. I like the misty appearance. Don't you just afore Mark Montano?! He's such a cutie and has the neatest ideas.
Thanks Laura, oh yes, I love Mark Montano 💕
Wow, the chalk wax really finishes them off, Nina! Love these!
I have white paint I can dilute. But what can I use to condition the ornament like the chalk wax does? Maybe beeswax I use for conditioning my quilting thread?
I'm just trying not to have to buy anymore supplies, but to use what I already have (which already overwhelms me). I'm downsizing for my mental health.😏) I used ModPodge on the grandkids' ornaments, last year. But, I like these so much better.☺️
Nice project! Art Glitter Glue has taken a long time to get to me from Amazon even though I'm in the US. In the meantime I have filled my bottle with Aleene's Quick Dry Tacky Glue which has worked fine.
Thanks Gail. I have some Aleens and have never been very impressed, but I think that’s due to the rubbish bottle it comes in. I will try decanting it 💕
😍😍😍
Thanks Dorothea 💕
❤️❤️❤️👍🏽
Thank you so much 💕
Love these! Is there a reason you didn’t use mod podge to glue them down with? Thanks so much!
Hi Mary, you can use any glue you have on hand. Modpodge will work just as well 💕
❤🤩🥰❤🤩🥰
Thank you so much Charlene ❤️
I love these. Is your chalk wax the same thing as home decor wax?
Yes it is ❤️
thank you!

They are Gorgeous, Nina..Do you do any craft classes? I believe you are in Worcestershire?, I live near Clifton on Teme...I would love to do some craft classes, but there dosnt seem to be any near here.
Hi Caroline, I don’t I’m afraid. I agree though, we could definitely do with more in Worcestershire 💕
If you send me a private message, perhaps we can meet up in the New Year. Always happy to get my craft on with someone local! 💕
Hi, what size are the wooden discs you are using? Thank you.
Hi Marie. They all measure approximately 3” 💕
What is the tool you use to apply the ink to the edges please…..x
It’s called an ink blending tool 💕
@@NinaRibenaMixedMedia thank you...I actually used my obvious last remaining brain cell last night and guessed that !!!!!! thank you for answering so promptly xxxx
How large are the wood slices?
They are on average 7.5 cm diameter x 1cm deep 💕
what would happen if you pour epoxy over it?
That would give them a wonderful glass like finish 💕
Loved these! Please see below for the best parts (imo). One caveat - I would have really appreciated a note in the description box giving the Names of the Products used - especially the White Wax & the Ink. (I love using Affiliate links because that allows me to support people whose work I enjoy at the same time, it's hugely Convenient.)
Otherwise, without the notes in the description box, I had to Re-watch the video (which is time consuming) or take notes during the original presentation (which is distracting). Please don't be offended by these suggestions. Purely intended as constructive criticism - hopefully you can gain some financial support from your channel if you follow the suggestion of affiliate links?
I Just Love the way these turned out!! Using the White Wax especially on Top of the paper was a brilliant choice & really took these to the "next level" & made them look like something purchased in a shop or from a professional Artist / Maker (rather than the decoupage I first made at summer camp type of project). Going back & re-inking was brilliant too. I really appreciate seeing ALL the steps! Thanks for sharing these!
Im looking for the product names too...the glue as well
The names of all the products I used are shared and mentioned in the video. Please feel free to pause the video and write the names down ❤️
Thanks so much for watching. You’ll find lots more festive ideas in my Christmas playlist. You’ll find the link in the description box below 💕
Your tree ornaments are so gorgeous and what a brilliant idea. Tfs xo
Thanks Elizabeth. Such a quick, easy and effective project 💕🎄 xo
