Shotgun shells on a Christmas Tree

[sgtD]

My daughter loves this song, as we are all bird hunters and hunting season is a big part of the holiday season around our house. All year she has been saving up red, green, and gold shotgun shell hulls to make ornaments with.

Here is a link to the song that inspired her. It's sort of a rural or Southern thang, but that's OK in my book, cause that's who I am and where I am from, but I hope you city folks will apreciate it too. You have to scroll down the page to segment 5 and click on there. The song will be introduced and then play.

Shotgun shells as ornaments on a Christmas tree?

Sounds normal to me.

Stringing and hanging them is easy once you press out the primers.

Since I'm using spent hulls (in order to make them look better) I'm crimping the ends with a reloader.

Actaually the ends just fold in, they don't crimp on empties, but they look better that way.
