DIY Nutcracker Ornaments

As I went on an impromptu walk through Hobby Lobby several weeks ago, I came across some craft wooden nutcrackers that were super cute and I knew I could figure out something to do with them. I decided they were the perfect size for ornaments. I put my own modern spin on them by painting black and white and they turned out so cute!
