STAR Crochet Christmas Ornament Coaster

crochet christmas star coaster garland ornament


Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la la la la la!

Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la la la la!

Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la la la la la la!
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol, Fa la la la la la la la!


I must admit that this song Deck the Halls is probably the best for getting into the spirit of Christmas.  I could fa la la la la la la la! all day long! Yes I know it's only October and we are already thinking about, preparing and planning our Christmas celebrations. It's a bit scary sometimes!

Anyway, I am going to share my new design Christmas Star Ornament Coaster created while I was on holiday in Australia visiting family.  Although I had lots of other more interesting things to do with my time, I somehow still managed to get creative with some of my yarn stash which resides in my daughter's garage, and with all the shops bringing out their Christmas decorations and other things Christmasy I decided to create a little something special. Here is my creation the Best Christmas Star Crochet Ornament Coaster, you can add a touch of Christmas colour to your table OR hang on the tree OR make a garland with this TWELVE point STAR ornament coaster.
