"Seed the Light" Poinsettia Ornament

I made this fun “holidayized plant” ornament for @marionberries in the Ongoing Ornament Swap --Come join us! Extended through the end of November!

I claimed this awesome theme before I had a plan in mind. When I started googling holiday plants, I kept seeing Christmas Cactus. I am a succulent lover, but that is so over done and boring! When I think of Christmas, I always think of poinsettias. So, I decided to make a felt one.

I strung seed beads onto thread and knotted each bead to the string so it wouldn’t move. Then, I thread it around the poinsettia like one one a Christmas tree. The beads alternate colors of red, green, and white.

I attached a clothespin to the back so it can clip to a branch.

The felt poinsettia is very pretty all on its own. And the little “string of lights” gives it bling and personality. So cool!

I love this and have it clipped to an empty wine bottle right now and it looks fabulous! Light twinkles off the beads.

Very pretty! The little “lights” make it look so warm and festive, and the clothespin backing is a good idea!
