Since Cheryl mentioned being in an ornament exchange, I thought I'd post photos from last year of the ornaments I made for friends, in case anyone else is looking for ideas: one, two, three
To make them, we bought garlands of flocked greenery and cut small springs with wire cutters to put inside of the clear glass bulbs. I inserted 3 red berries in each, and then put "rub on" transfers (found in the Michael's craft department) on the outsides of the clear bulbs. I topped each with ribbon, and also added our names and the date. They were also really easy to do!
Oh, those look GREAT!! Are you making more this year?

I sure am! I've only finished Susannah's though, since it had a real deadline. I talked about the ones I'm making this year here (with pictures).
