What would you make as a Girl Scouts Christmas craft if you had on hand:
tiny jingle bells
small red, green and white pompoms
all colors of glitter
chenille stems - red, green, white, silver, and gold
hot glue
tacky glue
ribbon

I have been staring at this pile of stuff for a while but no inspiration is coming. If I can come up with something that uses these things, then I don't have to go to the store!

Could you make wee reindeer with the pompoms, pipe cleaner legs, ribbons and bells for harness? Maybe you could venture outside for some twiggy bits for antlers?

what about snowmen with the white pompoms and then decorate them , use piper cleaners for arms. or make a wreath by cutting a cirlcle of paper and glueing the colored pompoms to it and then decorate with bells and ribbon.

How About "holiday" Wreath Friendship Bracelets. Twist the stems together and glue the assorted whatnot on them?

ko is along my line but I was thinking more of little wreaths to hang on a tree.
How about twisting the chennile stems and making candy canes to hang on the tree and tie a nice bow on them?

Wow you ladies are amazing, but I had no doubts you would have some great ideas.
Thanks so much, DH and I will play around with some of these suggestions tonight.
