This ornament is swirled with shades of gold and golden glitter. It started life as a clear ornament, then I swirled different shades of gold and added some glitter for good measure. The shades of gold really seem to flow together.

I've decorated the top of the ornament cap with gold ribbon, and included a matching golden ribbon from which to hang it on your tree.

I say Christmas ornament, because we generally associate ornaments with Christmas. But as you can see, there is nothing overtly Christmas about the ornaments. If you don't have a tree for whatever reason, there are other ways to use ornaments to decorate your home, and it can be done in a way that doesn't scream "Christmas".

Try a few in a bowl as a centerpiece, perhaps with pine cones or faux fruit. They also look great in a wide-mouthed vase or fish-bowl type of vessel. Use them in wreaths or garlands to add color. They would be welcome in any gift baskets you may be giving out this season. If you have a little basket or bowl of guest soaps in your restrooms, this would be a pretty way to add color and charm.

**US Shipping price includes insurance, and yes, that is mandatory. International shipping does NOT include insurance. If you would like to purchase insurance, which I do recommend, your items have to be shipped Priority Mail. Contact me for rates if you're interested, but I'll be honest and say it's expensive. I am not responsible for packages that do not have insurance. I wrap the heck out of everything I ship, but it's a long way for International customers.**

I also refund all shipping overages of a dollar or more, so if the shipping rate is too high, you will receive a refund.

Decorating the tree is an especially important job that is shared by everyone in the family. The early trees were decorated differently than today's evergreens. Early ornaments were usually hand-crafted or edible. Nuts, candies, fruits, and pieces of colored paper were the most common.
