Pineapple-tastic! (Friday Foto Fun #48)
Happy Friday! Why does it seem the weeks after a holiday seem so long even though it's a short week? I'm so happy it's a Friday FriYAY! I wanted to share my Pineapple ornament that I've been talking about the last few weeks.
It is so beautiful with the sparkly embellishments on the pineapple. This was a part of the Ornament Girls Club (affiliate link) August box. I joined the club because I'm such a sucker for pineapples and this was just gorgeous! Want me to buy something? Slap a pineapple on it! (or a cute whale)
These ornaments are easier than you think! The kits come with everything you need to make that month's ornaments, an e-book, and a video tutorial. Here are some of my progress photos!
Fold fabric and pin, repeat!
And when you are finished, add in the pretty embellishments!
I loved this pineapple so much I actually ordered 3 more kits. Seriously, I need some all over the house! This might become my new addiction! Have you made fabric ornaments before? If you want to try them, the club is a great start, even beginners like me can make them! Join the Ornament Girls Club (affiliate link) here!
I'm traveling for campus recruiting this next week for my day job. I'll be bringing some of my hand stitching embroideries along! I have lots of different Cozy Blue Handmade Stitch Club patterns to get started on! I also realized I forgot to include this stitch club on my list of subscription addictions!
I'll leave you with my mantra of the week: "Comparision is the Thief of Joy" ~Theodore Roosevelt

Sherry, your pineapple is the cutest thing ever!!!
That is seriously the cutest pineapple! I haven’t made ornaments for years, but I used to. Here’s a thought — I think you need to figure out how to do a pineapple weave. Just thought you needed another idea/project. 🙂
I made ornaments when my kids were young. Your pineapple looks super cute.
I love that – and it seems like there are quite a few pineapples about these days. I may have to look into it. Is it a fast finish? College recruiting sounds like – where are you headed?
