My Boho Christmas Bauble is part of the 2019 Bohemian Chic Blog Hop. Make as many as you would like to decorate your home, office or give out as gifts. Donating some to your local charity is also a nice thing to do.
I love decorating our tree with homemade ornaments. There is just something about looking at our homemade ornaments that just fills my heart. The holidays is my favorite time of year. In this image I used a ball of yarn since my ornament ran off. Enjoy!
