I just wanted to show what beautiful ornaments that our dear friend and her daughter made for our Jesse Tree exchange. We all meet this friday to "exchange" ornaments. I am looking forward to advent!

Marianne,
They are beautiful! Can you describe how the "gilded" ornaments were made? Specifically how were they painted? I need to make some ornaments for a co-op party and I had an idea for Our Lady of Guadalupe but my attempts are coming out sloppy. This might work if I pre-paint my ornaments
Enjoy your Jesse Tree and have a blessed Advent!

The directions for Drew and Julia's ornaments are now at the bottom of our blog entry at Catholic Moonlight in Vermont. Drew was kind enough to explain in detail. Thanks Drew!

I'm glad you all like them. I love when art is used for God's glory!!!

Since people are getting a move on their Jesse Tree planning, I posted a new link at the top of the page on the gilded Jesse tree ornaments my friend made last year at our Jesse tree exchange.
