Make DIY Wood Christmas Ornaments In no time at all-you could even personalize them!
If you’re loving all of the Plaids that I’ve been seeing in the stores lately, you will fall for these adorable little DIY Wood Christmas ornaments. I came up with this idea when I had a bunch of extra supplies from my son’s Lumberjack Themed Party and had a “what else can I do with these” moment. I love to re-purpose things and find other uses for them! You can make it with the kiddos and hang the finished piece on the Christmas tree. It’s pretty simple to make. Put name or initials on his hat. Would be so cute!
Supplies To Make Wooden Christmas Ornaments
*Hot Glue Gun (Here’s the one I use, it’s seriously amazing & has a detailed tip, Here’s the glue sticks as well)
*String or Ribbon
*Scissors
*Stick From The Yard
How To Make DIY Wooden Ornaments
While your Hot glue gun is heating up You can go ahead, gather and prep all your supplies so everything is ready, & you just Hot glue all of it on.
Pick out 3 round wood slices that are similar size to the large confetti peices.(I bought my wood slices in a misc. bag so they were all different sizes so I grabbed the smaller ones of the bunch).
Go Ahead and lay out your Confetti Pieces.
Cut your Snowman hat out using the Stiff Black felt. You can size it however you prefer.
Break off two pieces of your yard stick for the arms.
Now time to put your wood ornaments all together & hot glue!
Start by hot gluing the 3 wood slices together. Let dry. Then hot glue the large confetti pieces on the front of the wood slice.
Glue on your black hat however you would like to style it. We put a little tilt to our hat, thought it was cute!
Hot glue your stick arms on. Just a tip: you’ll want to hold the stick arm on the dab of hot glue up until it dries so it doesn’t slide.
And of course the last part of the DIY which turns your little plaid snowman into wooden christmas decorations that can be hung on the tree! Put a string on the back of it!
Cut a piece of string or Ribbon and tie it in a knot then hot glue it on the back on your snowman.
After the glue dries put another glob on top to make it extra secure for hanging. You can add any embellishments, beads, eyes, etc.. you wish as well.
Easy enough for any skill-level crafter. So when the weather outside is frightful, go ahead and stay inside, drink hot cocoa, bake, and do fun crafts. Make it a family tradition every year! Don’t forget to pin or share it for later so you can put the supplies on your next craft list. If you make this plaid little guy let us know!
