Ornaments and Fun

Plan a ladies’ Christmas party around the theme of ornaments. Ask each lady to bring an ornament for exchange. Also ask a few ladies to bring an heirloom ornament and share the story behind it, or have them bring an ornament that one of their children made.

Decorations:

In the center of each table place a large clear glass vase. Fill with a variety of colors of Christmas ornaments. These can be borrowed or purchased quite reasonably at a dollar store. It makes a stunning decoration for very little work. Spread multi-colored tinsel around the arrangement. If you have mirrored tiles, this would look great on them. Light small votive candles and arrange around the centerpiece.

Door Prizes:

 I have seen candles that were inside of an ornament with a lid. I have also seen ornament candy dishes. Either one would make a nice prize. I am sure during the holiday season you will find all sorts of “ornament” ideas for gifts.

Devotion:

Have someone speak on the beauty or ornamentation of an obedient and meek and quiet spirit using the following Scriptures.

Proverbs 1:9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

Proverbs 4:9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

Proverbs 25:12 As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
