Last Christmas I made my very first felt creations, Felt Christmas Ornaments. They were soooo FUN and easy to make. I made some more with my daughters and plan to make even more within the next few weeks.
Green and Red Combo
Blue and White Combo
Pink and Purple Combo
This is how you make these gorgeous felt ornaments:
Supplies:
Felt
Buttons
Ribbon
Stuffing
Embroidery Thread
Thread
Needle
Scissors
Glue Gun
Step 1: Fold your felt in half and cut out the desired shape. (You can draw the shape unto the felt, however I just cut it out by hand). Step 2: You have two options here. You can immediately sew on a little circle/square onto one of your circles or wait until later on. Honestly, I think it’s easier to sew it on right away (I tried both ways). Place your circles one on top of the other and starting sewing them using the embroidery thread. DON’T SEW IT COMPLETELY… you need to leave enough room to be able to stuff the inside. Step 3: Insert the stuffing. Step 4: Continue sewing the circles together… but leave room to insert your ribbon. Step 5: Once you have inserted the ribbon and sewn your circles completely… it’s time to decorate! You can use your hot glue gun or thread to decorate with felt and/or buttons.
And Voilà!! That’s how you can create your very own felt Christmas ornaments!!
What do you think?
I’m trying to decide what color combo to do next… any suggestions?
Have a FABULOUS day!!

Wow! very nice idea for Christmas decors. I will it. Thank you! Creative.
Love it! I’ve got to run to Hobby Lobby this weekend, and am now adding felt to my list. These would make great gifts, or even dress up a package. Great idea Christine! :-) Also,a fun color combo may be using gray with vivid colors. I think yellow/gray, or fuschia/gray or even turquoise/gray would be pretty.
Very cute Christine! I love felt.
