Do you love handmade ornaments as much as I do? They always get a special spot on our tree.
I know some of you are wondering why I’m posting about ornaments already. Well, some people like to start their handmade projects this time of year. If that’s not you just pin this to your holiday Pinterest board and come back to it when you’re ready.
Start planning for the holidays by creating a batch of felt Christmas tree ornaments with this easy tutorial. You can add them to the top of your holiday packages, exchange them with friends or make them with your children.
Make them in your favorite colors!
Felt Christmas Tree Ornament
Supplies needed…
– felt of any kind
– stash of tiny beads
– embroidery floss in matching colors and black
– white ribbon
– Polyfil {stuffing}
– scissors
– embroidery needle
– pattern from this post
The supplies are very inexpensive and easy to find. I used a wool blend felt for these Christmas trees, but any felt will look fabulous!
Start by downloading the pattern here…Christmas Tree Ornament Pattern.
Cut out two tree pieces and one trunk for each Christmas tree.
Felt is pretty all stacked up and ready to use. I usually cut enough for 5 or 6 at a time.
Take black embroidery floss and stitch a mouth and two eyes. There’s no wrong or right way, just make it a happy Christmas tree.
Embroidery floss has six strands, and I take 2-3 strands to stitch with when I work on details like this. It’s totally up to you, use all 6 if you wish. It will just look a little darker.
I took two strands of the light green embroidery floss and added the beads randomly around the tree.
Then I sandwiched the truck between the two tree pieces and started stitching them together with a running stitch. Again, with two strands of light green embroidery floss.
Work your way stitching around to the top. Cut and sandwich your hanging ribbon at the top. Add a couple stitches there to secure it and continue around the other side of the tree. Stop with enough room to stuff the tree.
Add stuffing and gently work it around. Do not overfill it or it will look lumpy.
No one needs a lumpy Christmas tree!
Make sure all the stuffing is clear of the opening and continue to stitch it closed.
Trim it up. This make a world of difference!
It measures about 3 3/4” tall and 3” wide.
Pretty cute, right?
I have pink and green ones everywhere.
