Oops.
I just left a very pretty Christmas wreath that I made out of yo-yos & ribbon at a local craft store.
Without taking a photo to share with you all!
It’s a demo for a class I’m teaching in December & I will get it back… I just should have remembered before I left the store today 
I do have another Christmasy yo-yo project though:
It’s a quick & easy 15 minute ornament. I’ve strung 5 small (1″ across) yo-yos together, with a bead in between each yo-yo. I made a little decorative picot on the bottom with 4 beads stitched into a circle. The hanger is a piece of ribbon with a bow, stitched into the top yo-yo.
Seriously, 15 minutes for a cute ornament!
Thanks if I start now I should have enough yo yos made for next years round of ornaments. I already have this years done.
ps I don’t think the 15 minutes is counting the yo yo making time unless you are a lot faster then I am.
Very cute! And I can’t wait to see the wreath!
Okay, I should have been more specific
I can make the entire ornament including yo-yos in 15 minutes. I did a little testing this morning with my family and it ranged from 2 minutes to 5 minutes per individual yo-yo. Timings depend on lots of different things
