DIY Christmas Tree Ornament

I love Christmas, it is one of my favorite holidays of the year. There is just something about Christmas that feels so warm, cozy and joyful even though it may be cold and sometimes frightful outside. Unless you live somewhere south or out on the west coast. Then I may envy you at times when I am brushing my car off in  negative wind chills. 

 When it comes to Christmas it seems to bring out the craft side in me more than the other holidays. One of my favorite things to do around Christmas is Creating new decorations for our home, creating gifts for family and friends and having fun quality time getting messy with our Daughters. 

With that being said, here is an easy DIY card stock Christmas tree ornament.  Great for most ages kindergarten and up. The younger children may need your assistance. 

 .

 You may hang the ornaments from your tree or anywhere in your home that heart desires. As you can see I hung mine on my dinning room tables center piece last year. This year they are hung on the same tree but next to our TV.

Supplies needed:          

• Holiday card stock paper
• A cup to trace the circles
• Scissors 
• Pencil to trace with.
• Glue stick
• A thinner yarn

How to step by step:

1. Trace all the circles you need with the glass.
2. Cut out your circles.
3. Fold your circles in half. (fold the ugly side of the card stock facing out.)
4. You will need at least 6 circles for each ornament. (you can use less or more if you choose to.)
5. Glue the ugly sides together.
6. Cut your string and tie a slip knot at the end.
7. Add the string right before you glue the last folded circle in.
8. Trim if needed and your done.
