Snow globe-style Christmas ornament
I’m going to show you how to make a cute and very easy snow globe! The materials are construction paper, double-sided tape, plastic sheet, decorative stickers and cotton, and wood glue.
Draw a circle with a diameter of 17 cm on the construction paper.
Draw another circle of 16 cm inside it.
Cut out the outer circle, then make a slit toward the center and cut out the inner circle.
Attach the plastic with double-sided tape.
Trim off any excess plastic, and finish by sticking on Christmas stickers and cotton with wood glue!
A tinsel Christmas wreath
Here’s how to make a simple Christmas wreath using pipe cleaners! You’ll need four green pipe cleaners, one red pipe cleaner, a straw or a pen, wood glue, and decorations like beads.
Wrap a pipe cleaner around the straw or pen.
Make three of these coils and slide them off the straw.
Thread the remaining pipe cleaner through the centers of the three coils.
Twist the ends together and form a ring, then shape the red pipe cleaner into a bow and attach it.
Finally, decorate with beads and secure everything with wood glue—done!
Christmas donut ornament
Perfect for Christmas ornaments! Here’s how to make an easy Christmas donut out of felt.
Materials: felt, craft stuffing, pom-pom balls, ribbon, beads, thread, and paper.
First, make templates for the donut and the icing using paper.
Cut the felt according to the templates.
Make two pieces by sewing the donut and icing together with thread.
Decorate with holly leaves made of felt, pom-pom balls, and beads, then sew the two donut pieces together.
Finally, add stuffing and attach a ribbon, and you’re done!
paper ball ornament
Let’s make essential ball ornaments for your Christmas tree out of paper! You’ll need thick paper such as postcard stock, TANT paper, beads, elastic cord for beads, 3 mm-wide ribbon, wood glue, and paste.
First, create a ball template using the thick paper.
Then cut out 20 ball pieces from the TANT paper.
Wrap a ribbon around the middle, thread beads onto the elastic cord, and run the cord from the bottom to the top—your ball ornament is complete! They’re super cute, so try making your own original ornaments using your favorite colors of paper and ribbon.
Christmas wreath
Alongside Christmas trees, wreaths are a classic holiday decoration.
The basic idea is to adorn a ring-shaped base with seasonal motifs, and you can easily find the base ring at 100-yen shops, etc.
While the traditional approach is to weave ornaments into a ring braided from plant vines, simply attaching motifs to any ring-shaped form can still create the right atmosphere.
The key points are deciding which designs to incorporate and how to balance their placement.
Using pinecones and items that mimic nuts to evoke a natural feel may better convey the desired mood.
Glass deco Christmas ornaments
Introducing an easy-to-make “Glass Deco Christmas Ornament Set”! You can create Christmas ornaments very easily—just color and let them dry.
Use the pens to fill in the included ornament designs with your favorite colors.
Since drying takes 8 hours, be sure to allow plenty of time.
Once dry, thread a string through and your cute ornament is complete! They also look lovely displayed in a frame all lined up, so get creative and have fun.
Santa hat
Here’s how to make a Santa hat easily with yarn! First, cut a kitchen paper roll or toilet paper core into a 1.2 cm ring.
Next, fold a length of yarn in half, insert the loop through the ring from the left hand side, and pull it through.
Take two strands at a time and braid them, making 3–4 stitches.
Make 36 of these.
Align the ends, tie them tightly, then trim to create a pom-pom.
Stuff the cut yarn ends into the ring and you’re done! It’s also cute to combine your favorite yarn colors, so definitely try making it for Christmas.
