This warmth and the glow that radiates around it can never ever be replaced by hanging ornaments bought off the shelf.

Homemade Christmas Ornaments

Let us take a quick look at some ways to have homemade Christmas ornaments:

* Use Mica tiles to display your family photographs! The front portion can showcase the picture where as the backside of the tile can be decorated using ribbons and paper, since the both the sides will be visible, once the tile is hung by a string or a chain. The edges of the tiles can also be decorated using colored paper and satin ribbons.
* Bring out those boxes full of Christmas cards and showcase them. This will not only be visually appealing but will also help you to cherish your good memories. You can cut them up into various shapes and hang them up on the tree!
* If you are really hard pressed for time, re-use your Christmas ornaments that were used the year before. You can wrap them up in colorful shiny paper or use glitter glue pens to decorate the outer surface.
* Dough can also be used, to create cute and zany shapes, which can be painted over once it dries. A little time consuming, they need to mold well to achieve the desired result. Mix salt in it to keep the insects at bay, which may prove to be a hindrance whilst it dries.

Homes Losing Value Fastest

Homes Losing Value Fastest - Homeowners with Citigroup loans in foreclosure-rich Virginia Beach, Va., and Orlando, Fla., are in luck.

Those that don't fall under the plan? They're in hot water. Well, underwater. Virginia Beach homeowners who bought homes this year possess a paltry 5.2% of home equity, and 34.5% owe more on their property than it's worth, according to Zillow.com, a real estate research group.
