(I don't remember where I found it.) Then I just found something circle to trace for the lion's face. I used puff paint for the mouth. For the whiskers I used plastic whiskers designed for stuffed animal making and cut them down to the appropriate size. The yarn for the mane is called Elvish Eyelash yarn. I think for the lamb's face I printed out a capital letter "U" in the appropriate size and used that as my template. Then I glued the two animals together with a pipe cleaner hook in the middle. Hope that helps. :-)Bonnienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445577935506525063.post-41525890503327401692012-10-16T23:38:12.994-04:002012-10-16T23:38:12.994-04:00Are there any templates/or directions for creating...Are there any templates/or directions for creating these?

My husband designed the labels and printed them on regular printer paper. We cut out the circles and glued them to the branches with Mod Podge, then when that dried, we glazed the entire ornament with Mod Podge. Small holes were drilled into the top, then twine was used to hang them on.<br /><br />I hope this helps!

Several years ago when the women's ministry was called E2 (were you at Grace yet?) I hosted a group and we had a couple of ornament crafting days, but I like so much better the make-them-at-home idea and then get to have a fun party to share them. :)<br /><br />I think I have Charlie talked into inviting our 1st graders over for some kind of party during December where I hope we can use an activity or two from the Jesse tree guide. I can't say how much I've loved the Jesse tree over the years with our family!Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16001515681472590908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445577935506525063.post-30642880651520735932010-09-02T15:45:33.964-04:002010-09-02T15:45:33.964-04:00Bonnie shared the following with us, I hope it hel...Bonnie shared the following with us, I hope it helps:<br /><br />The lion's fur is made out of yarn. The kind I used is called Elvish Eyelash Yarn by YarnBee. I got it at Hobby Lobby. For each lion I cut a short piece of yarn and glued it in a circle on the back of the lion's face. Glad you like the ornament.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07884633845600414859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445577935506525063.post-16912776506969311362010-09-02T13:02:40.793-04:002010-09-02T13:02:40.793-04:00Hi - I found your blog by doing a search for Jess...Hi - I found your blog by doing a search for Jesse Tree ornament ideas. I am going to be hosting a Jesse Tree ornament making night next month. We're mostly doing paper ornaments and just jazzing them up a little with glitter glue, but I'm taking a few of the ideas from your Jesse Tree ornament exchange and making some more special ornaments. One of the ones that I decided I had to do was the lion/lamb ornament. I got all the stuff and put one together last night as an example, but I wasn't able to find anything to make the little fur layer between his face and mane. I looked all over my craft store, but just couldn't find anything that looked like that. The sample I made is still really cute, but it would be way cuter with the fur, so I thought I'd ask if you happened to know what formed that cute little fur.

I wasn't able to be at the party so it's great to hear a little explanation about each ornament. -Bonnie (maker of the lion/lamb ornament)Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06074147807852531040noreply@blogger.com
