That's such a lovely idea. I recently started watercolour on wood slice. I will add a picture as one of my entries.

Thinking of more things I could make...

Here's an idea you could maybe modify to make it more "Christmassy". I Mod Podged some chicken pictures to a glass jar. Bet you could do something similar with a glass ornament (or maybe plastic ornament).


Blown eggs can be very pretty ornaments with a bit of paint or other decorative trim.

Salt dough ornaments are fun to make and not hard. Recipes for the dough are on the web then you can shape it or use a cookie cutter to cut poultry shapes. Those can be painted too.

Felt is easy enough to work with and requires little to no sewing.

And clay can be used for any number of decorative items. There are a lot of colors of moldable clay available.

Just look around your house, see what you have and use your imagination!
