I realize that we are just barely into November, but have you been in stores lately? They are totally whipping out the Christmas decor, so I’m going to too! A local window treatment shop, Gordon’s Window Decor, reached out to me about a scrap fabric stash they have from cutting custom EcoSmart blinds and window treatments. Gordon’s knew that this scrap fabric had potential and thought that creative minds, teachers and children would enjoy thinking up fun ways to put this fabric to use and keep it out of the landfill. Recycle, reuse and re-purpose! I thought it would be a fun challenge and agreed to come up with a creative project idea with their scraps! And I think I came up with some sweet… If the reactions that I have received for these Accordion Fabric Angel Ornaments is any indication, it is definitely a winner! I can’t wait for Christmas time so that I can put them up in my tree and hang these angelic little ornaments. If you’re interested in receiving a stash of supplies from Gordon’s Window Decor, head on over to their Call for Creatives blog post to learn more.

DIY Accordion Fabric Angel OrnamentsWhat do you think? Cute, right? My daughter came home after I made these. I had them hanging on a window in the dining room and as she walks in I hear, “Awwwww! MOM! These are so precious!” Then her and my son raided the fabric stash and came up with their own fun creations! In fact, my son brought some of the scraps to school and apparently all of his classmates were totally jealous! You never know what is going to excite a kid, right?
