Have ya ever wondered...

How many Christmas ornaments are on the tree???? 287 this year and that wasn't even all of them. I wonder how many I'll get up next year. I bought only 8 new ones this year. I also have a dozen clear glass ones that I want to make as well as repaint/glam-up the solid gold/red glass balls I didn't hang this year. Any suggestions on how to make those boring balls pretty??? My inner Martha Stewart is on vacation right now - not a drop of creativity flowing.
