Ivory tree ornament/ diffuser

My sister requested a little tree ornament to diffuse essential oils for her new Christmas tree.  She made it herself from birch branches and it hangs on the wall.  Takes no space and will hold a curated selection of oraments which will be all neutral in colour.  The ones I made were too bright and busy to really fit in with her new tree.  I dug through my felted wool and found a small piece of ivory and thought that would work well.  I trimmed a triangle shape and kept the adornment to a few lines of stitching.  I added a crochet  thread hanger and then went looking for buttons for the star.  I found two of these cool clear ones that worked really well for the star.  I stitched them back to back on the top of of my ornament.  I think it will work perfectly on her new tree and will generously diffuse pine essential oil to make Christmas memorable.          Therese
