Simple but amazing! Handmade Christmas decorations made with felt (41–50)
Star-shaped felt tree
It’s a three-dimensional Christmas tree shape made by combining puffed, star-shaped felt pieces.
The key tool is a star-shaped cookie cutter: cut green felt slightly larger than the cutter, coat the entire piece with glue, press it into the cutter, and shape the felt into a raised star.
Next, add finely cut felt inside and seal it to make each part.
Stack and secure these parts to build up the tree’s appearance.
For added stability, it’s also a good idea to put some paper clay into the lower pieces.
Snowflake ornament
This ornament has a soft look created by arranging felt pieces in a snowflake-like shape.
First, prepare two colors of felt cut into long, narrow strips, and make each piece while keeping the two layers stacked.
Once the pieces are ready, glue them together with symmetry in mind, and shape them into a snowflake to finish.
Be sure to maintain consistency among the pieces and aim for an even spread of identical shapes.
You can express originality through your color choices, so it might be nice to put some thought into that as well.
Pop-up Christmas card
A soft-looking Christmas card made by combining felt—the pop-up mechanism also adds a sense of fun.
You create the opening shape by sewing two pieces of felt together, then use that as the base to add decorations.
The popping elements are made separately and then assembled; be sure to determine precisely where to sew them on the card so they pop up when opened.
It’s recommended to layer the cover pieces and Christmas decorations well to add volume and warmth.
In conclusion
The soft texture and warmth of felt really enhance the charm of Christmas decorations.
Felt creations handmade with care and intention can bring a touch of Christmas magic into everyday life.
Display them in your room, and their uniquely handmade gentleness will make your Christmas day shine even brighter!
