I love all of the handmade aspects of Christmas. And I LOVE decorating the tree! I’ve been doing a four part Christmas Ornament series and today I am going to be showing you how to make Ornament Number 3.
I love this one because it looks SO complicated but it’s really super easy!
Start out with a square piece of paper.
Cut half diamond shaped lines going all the way around the square… BUT make sure NOT to cut the center. You need the paper to stick together.
Glue the corresponding edges together starting with the inner “diamond edges.”
Alternate back and forth between the directions you are wrapping the paper.
When you are gluing the corners together…
…Match the edges.
Puncture the top tip and insert a loop of thread and you have a beautiful Christmas ornament.
Merry Christmas! 🙂
I just won a bunch of old books at an auction. I can't wait to try this out! Your blog layout and graphics are gorgeous!
