it's beautiful! maybe you could mat it on something a bit larger and then have the hanger adhered between the mat and the coaster and also have something hanging underneath it, maybe a string of some kind of beads that would pick up the gold in the ornament?

This is a very pretty ornament. If you want to add something, I agree with Joan B - a loop or something for hanging it (gold ribbon?) would be nice. I wouldn't do too much else.

I think it's really pretty the way it is, too.

If you do something to make it better (but I can't imagine what that would be. . . ), besure to come back here and show us, okay?

Hi Everyone!
Thanks for all input. I just added some glitter to the star and the halo. it is hanging by a gold ribbon (even though you can't see it.)
