2. Bird seed ornaments
Birds should also thoroughly enjoy the holidays. Buy a bird seed mix and combine with a little flour and gelatine. Place in cookie cutters and insert a drinking straw in the top to make a hole for the string that will hold them up. Let dry for three hours or more, then slide a string or ribbon through the hole for hanging.

6. Frame it!
This I loved. Stencil out and cut out gift wrapping paper or old Christmas cards and simply glue to the back of holiday-themed cookie cutters. I thought this could also work well with small pieces of unused wallpaper you may have lying around.
