I just love these old glass ornaments.
Sometimes they are to fragile to hang on a tree, so why not turn it into your own christmas art?
Shadowboxes are perfect for this.
Line the frame with some colored craft paper and affix your ornaments with double-sided tape.

I saw this in Country Living - great idea! Shadow boxes are the perfect Christmas gift for almost anyone, don't you think? xo

I have ornaments just like these. Always nervous even when I put them in a bowl as they are so fragile. Love this idea.
