Jingle Bells Shadowbox

I love the sound of bells at Christmas time... so with a few items purchased at my local craft store, I created my own Jingle Bells shadowbox. Last year I found a huge assortment of bells in the sale bin at the fabric store so, not having any idea what I would do with them, I bought 10 packages, various sizes and colors! This year, they came in handy for my shadowboxes. I made the first two in silver... very easy and a lot of fun!
All you need is a shadowbox frame from Michaels, background paper, transparency paper for your sentiment, bells, 2" wide Christmas ribbon and a hot glue gun.

An hour later this is the finished project. You can create them in any color to suit your Christmas decor. I love the red and white candy cane stripes so this will be my next creation with red bells!
