Volunteering with the Girl Scouts - Personalized Ornaments


Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is ready or St. Nick! I'm here t I love these flat back plastic ornaments from Hobby Lobby. You can personalize them in so many ways. My daughter's Girl Scout troop has all ages so I volunteered to lead this craft for 30 girls!! Luckily there were other leaders and parents to assist. 


Here's a quick representation of what we made. The younger Scouts added pom-poms to the interior of the ornament, the older ones added fake snow. Each girl brought in a wallet size photo from school   or sports and I used my Creative Memories cutting system to cut each picture into the circle. If anyone forget theirs, I provided clear winter embellishments like the snowflake seen here. I provided ribbon and wired leaves to finish the look. All the Scouts and their parents loved it!

  1. Very cute! I picked up a 24 count wreath ornament kit from Michaels. the 5 yr olds just love the foam shapes and it is super easy for them to peal off the sticky back and place them on the larger foam piece. The teacher printed off photos an d cut them in circles and we glued those on the back. It was really cute. So far we have done pumpkins , Turkey's and now Wreaths. In January we will make snowmen.
