Christmas tree ornaments can be used creatively in a variety of ways for decorating, and the best part is the low cost.
Buy two medium or large clear ornaments and remove the metal part on top that attaches to a hook. Fill the ornaments at least half way with spices to use in hot chocolate or egg nog. One could be filled with ground nutmeg, and the other could be filled with ground cinnamon for example. Other options would be vanilla or chocolate powder, whatever you’d like really. Now, cover the openings with squares of cheesecloth. Secure the cheesecloth around the opening with silver or gold string.
Large clear ornaments can also be used to fill with bright candy, peppercorns, popcorn kernels or any other bright colored small food item. Tie bits of ribbon to the loops meant to use hooks in for hanging.
Use small sized festively colored ornaments for decorating the fridge. Tie two together using red ribbon, and hang them over a metal fridge clip that is clipped to a holiday photo or card.
Small ornaments also look cute used as decorations on cupcakes, one small ornament per cupcake.
You can make a cute centerpiece for a table using ornaments stuck on wooden skewers displayed in a vase. Use pieces of your Christmas tree in between ornaments.
Small ornaments can be tied in pairs around napkins with cute ribbon to create unique place settings for parties. Write the guests name who is to sit in each place on small pieces of paper and slip the pieces into clear ornaments, one for each pair in a setting.

Aside from copyright infringement this is also against the blogger terms of service.
I'm sorry about that, I won't use images from your site anymore. This image has now been replaced with an identical image from iStock.
@domainpubber: That's hilarious that you are all worried about copyright infringement and she found the exact image on istock. Seriously, I would love you to take that one to court =). I don't even understand your concern about hotlinking because believe it or not having her link to your picture actual helps your rankings in Google. It's obvious that you are not very web savvy to be concerned over so trivial matters.
