The Nutcracker Oyster Shell Christmas Ornament is not only for hanging on your Christmas tree. I create each Nutcracker holiday ornament design using real oyster shells. Large flat shells are chosen for the ornaments. The nutcracker art is added with a decoupage process and I hand paint the edges and back with gold leaf. Discover these fun ways to display your handcrafted ornaments.

Nutcracker Ornament Door Decoration
Tie the nutcracker oyster shell Christmas ornament to the handle of your door. My front door is a double door and the left side is rarely opened. During Christmas, I always place an ornament on the door handle. The oyster shells are not breakable so this design is a good choice.
Nutcracker Ornament On Bookshelf
I like to make bookshelves interesting with a mix of books as well as objects of art. Place the oyster shell ornament on a small easel and let the ribbon flow around it. I also added small pinecones and berries at the base of the easel. During the Christmas holidays, this little touch creates a festive atmosphere on your bookshelf.
