If you are planning to have handmade Christmas ornaments adorning your tree this year, it is time to start making! I have scoured the web to bring you my favorites to help you on your way.
These BoBunny stitched paper bird, tree and snowman ornaments are on the top of my list. How adorable are they? If you have a thing for stitched paper like I do, and these are right up your alley.
How about this precious hand painted Christmas penguin ornament at Little Gray Fox? Do you just need him? He makes me what to have a penguin themed tree and make like 50 of him. The tutorial is detailed, and looks simple enough. Oh happiness!
My friend Beckie at Knock Off Decor showed me some West Elm recycled magazine page ornaments that I just had to hack last year. These are great, eco-friendly holiday ornaments to use up those piles of magazines laying around. If I were eligible, I would enter them in our Totally Green Crafts Contest Holiday Edition. Wait a minute, you are eligible. Wanna be in the running for over $600 in prizes? Go for it!
Now for these little frosted tree ornaments by Carolyn at Homework. She has them in a beautiful Christmas vignette, but I kinda want to string them and hang them on my tree (move over, cute penguins). See how she made them with salt!
This little book page Christmas Tree ornament from Mindi Made on Etsy doesn’t come with a tutorial, but I am inspired by it’s simplicity and whimsy! Fits right into that green craft category for the eco minded.
On to the 50+ Round-up:
Such a pretty collection! Thanks for creating this roundup. I’ve marked several to try this season. So inspired! Sharon
Such a pretty collection! Thanks for creating this roundup. I’ve marked several to try this season. (If I could crochet, the amigurimi bears would be tops on my list.) So inspired! Sharon
Thank you, Sharon! Those amigurimi are too cute. It is almost worth learning to crochet, right?!
All Christmas ornaments are fabulous. I found here great idea to decorate my home for this Christmas. Thank you so much for interesting and worthy post.
These are all great! I’m inspired to actually start my holiday crafting now! 🙂
Fabulous roundup Johnnie!!
Oh what a great round up! I’m loving all the varieties of ornaments!
I love the use of paper for DIY ornaments. The first one especially gives them the look of felt ornaments. I have only done paper embroidery so far but this looks so do-able!
