Yo-Yo Shamrock Ornaments

Hi everyone! Tonight I'm joining Chari for Sunday Favorites with what was my 3rd post of all time! I started blogging last March and joined Kathleen's St. Patrick's Day Yearly Blog Crawl:@)

I'm happy to be joining Cuisine Kathleen for her blog crawl! (While I've been on my share of pub crawls... this is a first!)

I'm sharing ornaments I made for my feather tree, they started out as yo-yo's 
and I shaped them into shamrocks.
Updated-I've been asked how to make them: I started with a round yo-yo and just ran string up through the center, looped it around the outer edge and back into the center, then pulled it a little snug. I did that in three spots to make the three petals of the clover. Once you do it you'll see:@)

It's a good use for scraps of material and they look great on the tree!
Have a happy day!
