Tulle (I used red and white)
Measuring Tape
Scissors
Wire
Wire Cutter/Pliars
Ribbon (I used red and green)
- With your wire cutters cut 5 pieces of wire at 11 inches each
- Get one peice of wire and make a circle shape
- Twist the ends together to hold the circle shape
- With your pliars clamp the ends to secure


- Decide what colors you want your ornaments to be
- Cut 16 peices of tulle at 4 inches each
- Do this 5 times
- With the 1st 16 peices of tulle wrap and tie the tulle around the wire
This is what it will look like with all 16 pieces of tulle.

6th:
- With your fingers clamp the wire together like the picture shows.

7th:
- With your fingers twist the wire around 5-6 times
- It will look like this

Repeat steps 5-7 four more times to make 5 Christmas ornaments.
Just add a bow and you are all done.

These are so cute!! I made one tonight and I feel like my wire is to thin... can you tell me how thick the wire should be? I don't do crafts much, but I am making these as Christmas gifts. Thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteGood question! I wished I remember. It is either 18 or 20 gauge wire, because that is all I buy.
ReplyDeleteEither gauge will work fine but I'm thinking it's 18 gauge.
