ECO-KID FRIENDLY ORNAMENTS!


If you are like me and have a little elf running around the house re-arranging the holiday decor, you might appreciate this tip...eco-kid freindly ornaments! Don't even bother unpacking your sacred collection of breakable treasures, reuse some goods around the house and make new ones. Step one: Find some newspaper or a paper bag (you know, the bags you have because you left your reusable bags in the car and were already inside the market and too lazy to go back out to the car in the pouring rain to get them!) Anyway, take your paper and if you have an origami expert husband like I do, put him to work in front of the TV while he watches football and have him begin folding stars or if he is really talented, maybe even doves! Or search YouTube for origami ideas and you will find helpful videos for you and the kids! Step two: Avoid those silly metal ornament hooks, find lose scraps of ribbon or robe around the house and make your own loop and hang on your tree. Step three: Of course just recycle them once the holidays are over!
