Yummy, dessert! The holidays are great for a number of reasons, but I think the true magic comes from the desserts and sweets that we get to indulge into! Calories don’t count for holidays, right? I am going to assume that applies for the entire season.
To create this ornament, we are using Lion Brand Yarn’s Basic Stitch Yarn along with all the other materials you may need to hang it up in your tree! All the materials you will need can be found at your local JOANN stores, online and offline. Can’t wait to see how you decorate your homes using JOANN!
I’ve teamed up with JOANN to bring you an ornament collection this season! This is just one of the three – You can head HERE to find the other two as well! JOANN is a place to bring in all the magic of the holidays when it comes to crafting and using yarn is no exception.

Putting it all together!
With the white frosting top, lay it flat on top of the body. Using your long tail, sew on the “drips” around! (Pinning it in place will also be helpful)
Now it’s time to add the holly on top! Add the two leaves first and then the red ball into the center.
