I’m thrilled to introduce
our next guest blogger
Jenn from RedBerry Barn
{Handmade Ornament No. 13}
Welcome…Jenn!
Hello to all of you Dreaming girls!!
My name is Jenn and I have a little blog called RedberryBarn.
I started my blog at the beginning of this year to help motivate me
to get some projects done and to finally decorate my house a little!
I have been mostly motivated and inspired by all of the
amazing bloggers out there like Stephanie Lynn!
I am a SAHM of 3 handsome boys and 1 darlin’ princess,
so I get a lot done during naptime and late at night!
This is the Christmas Ornament Tutorial that I would like to share:
Altered Canvas Ornaments
While I was designing and making them, I thought that the
possibilities are endless on what you can put on the canvas.
You can add pictures, mod podge papers, flowers,
handprints, perfect neighbor/teacher gift and so on!
Supplies Needed:
Paint {Paint Brush}
Small Canvas
Ribbon {3/8″ & 1.5″}
Optional: fabric {the Noel one I used fabric}
Glitter balls {from a pick}
Hot glue
Poster Marker
Brooch {I used a brooch for the hanger in the back}
1. Paint your canvas, let dry.
2. Use a Poster Marker to write on the canvas
{this is where your creativity can go wild!}
3. I just cut them off of the stem, I used about 24 balls on each canvas.
I bought these glitter ball picks at Hobby Lobby when they were 1/2 off!
That is the only time I buy anything there!
4. Hot Glue the thin ribbon around the edge of the canvas, to give it a finished look.
5. Hot Glue the balls around the canvas {be careful because
I burned my finger really bad doing this step}.
6. Make your own ruffles!! Just sew in and out on the bottom of the ribbon
and then pull the thread to gather the ribbon.
I made the black w/white polka dot ruffle using fabric. Cut a 3 1/4″ x 40″
strip of fabric, fold it in half and then sew the edges together.
7. Hot Glue the ruffle to the back of the canvas.
8. Attach the brooch, or whatever you use for the hanger, to the back.
I hope you will enjoy this project.
I already have plans for my kids to make some!
A big thank you to Stephanie Lynn for inviting me to be a part of this

Thank you Jenn for sharing these super cute ornaments! I really like the added ribbon and the glitter balls – they add the perfect holiday touch!
The next ornament will be up shortly! In the meantime pop on over to Redberry Barn and give Jenn a visit.
The attention to detail in every one of Jenn’s projects is incredible. I am in love with this unique door hanger she recently made. It is cleverly put together with a plate charger. The embellishments are absolutely gorgeous – You can check it out {here}.
A few of my other favorites include this Boxwood ‘L’ Wreath, these
Printed Canvas Pillows, some amazing Diaper Cakes, and a pretty Paper Wreath.
