    Oh my goodness! I've only watched half an hour and I love all of this. So cute! It harkens back to a time when I would sit with my grandmother and make little ornaments for my tree. Thank you so much for sharing and it is a delight to listen to you as well😊

      @@myhomeonthehillside It was! One thing I don't see anymore was when you cut out images and glued them on Styrofoam balls and dipped them in a clear wax umm sometimes I think white wax was used depending on picture you used. I have been looking for those direction on that decoration but haven't found it yet. Ahh it was in the 70's lol been a while!

      @@myhomeonthehillside I am thinking the handmade Christmas ball decoration was a type of decoupage, I remember the balls being first dipped in a white wax and pictures cut out I think from cards but were winter scenes and also mostly white. were put on the balls and dipped again in a thin wax but now we have that acrylic spray..hmm gives me ideas!!!. I have spent many hours looking at vintage 1970's Christmas balls lol it bugs you when you can't find what you're looking for!

    Hi Caroline, thanks for all of these cute ideas, and for taking the mystery out of French knots! I love the stitching on the bird's tail feathers, but I think my favorite is the tree with the French knot baubles on it. I'm inspired to get some felt and start designing something for my own little tree!

    I love them all! My favorites are the mittens and the bird.
    I might add a santa or elf hat at a jaunty angle on the bird. And maybe use some glitter felt for some sparkly mittens. I am so enjoying this Christmas in July series! I enjoyed last years too.

    They're all really nice but inching ahead by a minute fraction would be the heart & key and the little bird 😍
    I think my sister took our all late mum's embroidery silks cos at the time, I wouldn't have used them but now, a few years on and I'm getting the urge to sew as I already have plenty of felt. Plus, my sister crochets so probably wouldn't have even used them get anyway. These are so cute!

    Love your felt decorations and you explain everything so clearly. I would like to make the heart and those cute little mittens. I think a little bell hanging from the bottom of the heart would be a lovely addition. I have previously made little felt Christmas trees and strung them together to make a garland.

    Hi again! I commented earlier on your one Christmas crafts videos from last year & had to watch this one! So much fun here - haven’t worked with felt in a long time, great to be reminded of how great it can be (sadly, the felt I see in stores these days is not like it was 40+ years ago!). I’m in Ontario, Canada & subscribed now! I can imagine sitting with you crafting at a table & having so many laughs & enjoying the process!

      Hello Ellen :D Thank you for subscribing! I agree, felt is quire flimsy nowadays. Some brands seem to add starch, glue or something to stiffen it, but it still isn't what it used to be like. I agree, crafting with company is so much fun :)

Someone had made animals with (trying to remember the name of the fuzzy wire but my minds gone blank lol - five minutes later I remembered) They were made with "Pipe cleaners" and felted wool, the animals she made were cute and super realistic. (Now wondering if I'd seen that post in the group - my memory agggh) 🤔🤣
