A family's Christmas tree ornament collection can become, over time, an opportunity to tell a family's story. They can be as varied as the family, itself. Some ornaments might be purchased at special locations, handed down over the years, or handmade by family members every Christmas. My own tree is adorned with many handmade ornaments, my favorites being my crocheted apples and re-purposed Christmas cards.

Overview of These Crocheted Ornaments

Each crocheted “apple” is made from red and burgundy multicolored chenille yarn. Inside each apple is a Styrofoam ball. The green “leaves” are made with green multicolored yarn.

Each re-purposed Christmas card needs only a hole punch, a pair of scissors, and some festive yarn to create. Use a very lightweight yarn with metallic strands for a twinkling look.
