Here’s what you’ll need:
Begin by dotting a little black clay onto the white clay.
Twist the two colors together.
Roll out the clay to about a 1/4″ thickness.
Cut out your shapes.
Using the straw, make a hole at the top of the ornament.
As you add more clay and roll and cut out more tree shapes, the marbling with change and get better with each ornament. I love the variation in marbling that each of the ornaments has.

I started with a mixture of some old and new vases.
Here’s my new favorites. Next time you are looking for some fun foliage for arrangements, be sure to ask your local florist for these inexpensive flower-less stems.

Well, it’s a good think I don’t have a podcast or make videos, because I have no voice. I’ve been feeling like I’m about to get sick for the last week and a half. And then, mid-Friendsgiving dinner Monday evening, my voice started to go. Tis the season for colds and sore throats I guess. My body is telling me to stop and slow down, even though I don’t feel like I have the time to. Maybe you can relate. MJ of Pars Caeli wrote about taking care of yourself, I’m going to take some of her good advice (next week).
Here’s some posts I’m digging this week. You are going to want to check these out:
Be sure to check out this home office and craft room, the removable wallpaper is amazing!
No boring Thanksgiving table decor to be found here. Bright colors and graphic patterns make for a unique Fall look.
Pretty paper wreaths in soft pastel colors, perfect for modern Fall and Winter decor.
I love this Fall mantel 3 ways. It’s hard to pick a favorite.
And if you are not listening to the podcast, Hear Motherhood, head over there now.

Gingerbread Syrup
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
2 tsp. ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
2-3 tbsp. molasses
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. cloves
Bring to a boil and cook for 4 mins on high. Cool and store in an sealed jar or bottle. Keeps up to 2 weeks in the fridge. When added it to coffee or a latte, take it out of the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature. It can be very thick if it is chilled.
For a Milkshake, combine good vanilla ice cream, with a splash of milk and a little Gingerbread Syrup in a blender.
