Is there a better way to finish these? Maybe, but this is how my grandma did it and I like them with the felt and gold cord. I don&#8217;t think I will ever really tire of Mill Hill ornaments. They are always just so cute and sparkly. But if I do make all the ones I have, I will have to dedicate one tree just to them!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_122\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?ssl=1\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-122\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?resize=360%2C480&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?w=3024&amp;ssl=1 3024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marysthread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/img_4463.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-122\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Group Shot 2016 Mill Hill finishes!!!!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Finally, I ordered new buttons for Wishes Do To Heaven Aspire.
