PICTURE TH IS

Here’s a simple way

to display photos:

Fill straight-sided

glass canisters

with ornaments

of different sizes.

Then tuck in a

snapshot. Black-and-

white images will

stand out against

colorful ornaments.

If you prefer color

photos, try white or

silver ornaments.

SHINY SWAG

Make a color-

coordinated garland

by stringing ornaments

onto ribbon, tying

each in place.
