Christmas Bell


Take construction paper and fold it in half lenghtwise. Cut out a shape that looks like half a bell. Repeat this step 2 more times. Take all 3 bells and glue them together at the fold. Open them all up. You can take some thread and have it go through it, it will make an excellent decoration to hang.

Merry Christmas!

Hink pinks for "a lone little Christmas bell is a......?"?

Lone tone?





Cuz it's a hink pink, not a hinky pinky, therefore it cannot be a single jingle. Hinky pinkies have two syllables each while hink pinks have one each.

Reply:Try the mall or even a dollar store. If you want to make them go to an Arts %26amp; Craft store and buy the hooks and stuff and design your own.
Reply:Try Walgreens, Target or Claire's accessories! Or even a party store like party city.
Reply:I got some little bell earrings from Avon last christmas, and I am actually wearing them now. They are little bells with strings. Check Avon or Wal-mart's jewlery section. Hope this helps :D

You ever want to ring a Christmas bell ringers bell?

No. That would require me looking their way and I try very hard not to do that. Seriously. I give. I give. I give. I can't do it at every intersection and bell ringers bucket.





I don't mean to sound like scrooge but I give quite a bit and the times that I don't all it takes is one look from a bell ringer and I feel so dagnabbit guilty for not giving that time.

om gosh..........yes of course.............I could run quick, grab it ring it and give it back......ok I digress...........
Reply:no but I have wanted them to ring mine
Reply:Yeah because of the fact my brother did it, at a time we didn't know where he was at and if it hadn't been for that faithful night of going to the store with his daughter my neice, we wouldn't have known where he was at.





To repay them for all they do, i would love to do it.

Do the Christmas bell ringers actually belong to Satan?

I avoid them at all costs. They look like satanic homeless people. I think it is all a hoax on God and they are giving the money to Satan and his minions.

Do the Christmas bell ringers actually belong to Satan?
yeah, because helping out the poor and unfortunate is completely against the christian religion, not to mention all human decency. *eye roll*
Reply:You're nutty! I like that. Report It

Reply:You're kidding me right?
Reply:Haha. Your questions are too funny!
Reply:wow.








You need to get a life. If you have a husband.... spend some time with him.





If you are joking I think its hillarious.
Reply:Actually, the sound of bells scares off satanic minions.
Reply:No, sweet girl, they are volunteers for the Salvation Army, a non-profit organization that feeds and clothes millions of poor and homeless folks.





God bless!
Reply:You're probably right, Donna. Some of them even dress up like Santa. Can you believe it!??!?!





*the lowest form of wit*
Reply:Go take your meds, and you'll be alright shortly. The nurse will be in to see you momentarily.





Hellooooo - the Salvation Army feeds the hungary, clothes the poor, helps people find shelter, and many other invaluable services for the community.





When you've done at LEAST as much as THEY have, THEN you can start criticizing. Until then, it seems to me that you come across as just one sad soul looking to justify your actions by putting others down who are more noble than yourself.
Reply:All I can do is laugh. Seriously. I just laughed when I read this.





What a hoot! Thanks for the giggles!
Reply:Get real.
Reply:Isn't landover baptist the nuts that protest the military funerals?
Reply:Where did you get this from? Who has messed with your mind. People, bell ringers or not are God's creation. They are working and that is wonderful! Excess money over hourly wages go to help other unfortunate people that they are concerned with. God meets us in many forms and we cannot judge. Jesus says the two greatest commands are: love God with all your heart and love your bell ringing neighbor as yourself. Thank the Lord that we do not have to stand in the cold and embarass ourselves because we need a job. Thank the Lord that these bell ringers have faith in God; the one that created all of mankind. People that judge are not on God's side and should be quaking in their shoes and may not be saved.
Reply:You seem to have a good grasp for spotting Satan. Now work on the meaning of charity.


I hate Christmas bell ringers, how about you?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not evil. But I never carry cash with me since I'm always using my debt card. Put a damn card reader on that thing and I'll give money.

I hate Christmas bell ringers, how about you?
I don't mind 'em if they don't ASK me for money. They can ring their bell all they want - but some will actually ASK as well. I give - but one can only give so much. I live in a city where there are at least 3 of them on every block and in front of every store I go into. Can't give to EVERYbody. But when out I'll drop a few bucks in ONE of the kettles. When asked repeatedly all day long while out shopping (sometimes on the way in and on the way out) for money - DOES start to make me a little cranky. They don't all ask - but lately I've noticed many do...not nice. I SEE you I HEAR your bell and if I want and/or can give to you I will - don't verbally solicit me as well.
Reply:that is a brillant idea! i don't hate anyone for that, unless they stare me down.
Reply:yep, they make me feel guilty... even though I've filled three Salvation Army Christmas stockings, donated hats, scarves, and mittens to the elementary school's mitten tree, sent 3 full boxes to Operation Christmas Child, and written checks to Angel Tree Ministries for kids of inmates...





But recently I've started to talk to the ringers. I say, "Hi -- I already sent in my check, but I just wanted to thank you for making Christmas good for some kids." Makes me feel better.
Reply:Yeah, I like the cause, but, the constant bell ringing is annoying.
Reply:They are doing that for charity. They stand outside in the cold and ring that bell and get nothing in return. Sometimes you are there for hours. Its not that great, and it really stinks when people give you ugly looks.
Reply:y u hate them i like them
Reply:you think they keep most of the money

flowers and gifts

Looking for a "1983 Baby's First Christmas Bell Ornament"?

A couple of years ago my mom was putting up the tree and it fell over. One of the first ornaments to go on would be my baby's first christmas glass bell ornament because it was breakable. It broke when the tree fell over. I have been looking all over the internet for one and can't find any.





Do you know of any place that has one or do you have one that you are willing to part with. Please help!
