Welcome ABS Ornament Blog Hoppers! And welcome to my regular blog-stoppers-by too! Everyone take a minute to go click through all the great ornaments featured in the link list below. There are some seriously fantastic ornaments to behold. As an added treat, Heather is hosting a giveaway on the Art Bead Scene blog in conjunction with this hop so be sure to check that out after 12pm EST today.
My finished ornament ended up taking a different turn from what I had originally envisioned…I had big plans to make a handful of graduated, embellished, felted wool beads and an enameled flower component to accompany one of my Captured Souls suncatchers. Instead my Captured Soul turned into a full blown snowman with one little embellished bead as his own ornament.
Ultimately? I love how he turned out: no where near as jewelry-like as I originally intended to go, but super cute nonetheless. And now I’m in a frenzy making an army of little glass snowmen for the Etsy 817 Handmade Holiday Show this weekend.

ooOOooo, these look awesome!!I was just admiring all the ornaments you’ve given me in the past. I love them all!!

Thanks so much, Regina! Molly and I were doing the same thing earlier this morning. She loves, LOVES, that little sugar plum fairy you sent way back at her first Christmas. I do mean love…she invited the UPS guy in to see it and when he told her he shouldn’t come in the house she was all, “that’s okay, I’ll bring here for you to see.”

Very cute ornament! Isn’t is funny how you can see an idea or design in your head, but once you start working on it, it changes so much?! {And usually for the better!} I love that he has his own little ornament!
-
Thank you, Catherine! Yes, it is rare that I execute an idea exactly as I originally planned it, heh.

Very very cute! That snowman is just wonderful! I love his little ornament, too! Great job!

Your snowman is a cutie-patootie! I have a snowman half soldered on my workbench (but didn’t manage to finish him). Isn’t it funny how creativity takes funny twists and turns – happy accidents!
-
Snowmen are my favorite! I love yours!
-
I love your ornament! The sun catcher turned snowman is really wonderful. It is amazing how ideas turn out to be something completely different but just as, if not more, wonderful! Beautiful work!
-
Gotta love that snow-guy/girl! For me, that scarf just makes the outfit!

Fantastic idea!

SQUEE! I love snowmen! This is my favorite so far. I love the rustic look of him and his sweet little embellishment! So cute.
