Omgoodness, I am SO EXCITED to be participating in this amazing new tradition, the 12 days of craftmas!!
Are you excited? You should be! Cause it flipping AWESOME!
So, today is my day! If you have missed yesterday, the go back to Lizzie's blog and check out her awesome craftastic christmas craft!
Now, though, its my turn! It wasn't easy, but I was able to round up a bunch of scrabble tiles. I used a strong adhesive and glued the tiles together into words. It took a lot of patience, but I love how they turned out.

To attach the eye at the top I used a very fine drill bit and slowly (and I mean slowly) drilled a hole into the top and then screwed them in. I took some fun Christmas ribbon and tied bows. Viola! Awesome, unique Christmas ornaments. They also would look great as tags on your Christmas gifts!
