Whimsical Ballerinas

A homemade craft

made from music sheets

to decorate your home at Christmas 

Hang on your tree or

 a pretty garland.

These ballerinas

can be used anytime of year.

Great idea to decorated

for a birthday party.

 I photocopied music sheets 

on both sides of thick paper

 (8 1/2 by 11)
I traced 2 templates on the page
  I got from this site:
http://krokotak.com/2012/11/snowflake-ballerinas-for-crafty-moms/

Two ballerinas per page(on both sides of the page)

I used wired wrapping ribbon for the skirt (approx. 1 1/2 ins. wide)

I pleated the wire about 1/8 inch to gather the waist
 and attached to the body with hot glue gun.

 The embellishments to the neck and head I bought at Dollarstore and Walmart. 
I also added fake fur

In the dark...

The sheet music I used is from 

 Johannes Brahms

Hungarian Dance No. 5

one of my favourites.

Fun and so easy to make....

I attended the Nutcracker ballet last year (2018), with

my daughter, Granddaughter and Grandson.

at the Place des Arts, Montreal.

2019

My great niece is a Ballerina.

A member of Les Ballets Classique de Richmond.

They will be performing their production of  The

Nutcracker Ballet at the Centennial Theatre, 

Bishops University in Lennoxville, Quebec

in December.

The Montreal Symphony Orchestra will

be performing.

Rachael is the girl in the front in the middle.
We're so proud of her....
