How to Make Christmas Ornaments

How to make Christmas ornaments: step-by-step description 

Step 1: Get two sheets of glitter (gold or silver).

Step 2: Make the circles neatly cut out.

Step 3: Place one gold circle on top of a silver circle.

Step 4: Cut the stacked circles into identical "pizza-slice" sections.

Step 5: Place hot glue on one straight edge of the slice.

Step 6: Cut this slice to create a tiny cone or flower shape, then press it to stick.

Step 7: Create lots of identical cone petals from each piece.

Step 8: Apply one tiny drop of hot glue. This procedure will securely secure each cone shape.

Step 9: Pinch and shape the cones so they remain curvaceous and even

Step 10: Arrange several cones side by side to form a fan shape.

Step 11: Create another matched fan (so there are two parts).

Step 12: Put hot glue on the back of one stack.

Step 13: Join the two fan stacks to create a full-circle flower shape.

Step 14: Then press and adjust so that the circle appears even all around.

Step 15: Apply a bit more glue to the back and in the middle to help secure the shape.

Step 16: Put a small circle of glitter in the middle of the card to create a cover.

Step 17: Create a second-round flower, this time in the second colour (gold/silver).

Step 18: Apply hot glue to the back or centre of just one blossom.

Step 19: Put the second flower over to create a ball.

Step 20: Hold the flower for some minutes, then release it and fluff the petals. Your ornament is now ready!

Step 21: Cut a thin piece from glitter (silver), and then take the pipe cleaner in gold to make the loop to hang it.

Step 22: Apply hot glue on the other end of the strip.

Step 23: Attach the gold string to the glued end, creating a loop to hang.

Step 24: Make sure to roll the strip of glitter tightly into a small tube loop and glue it to hold it.

Step 25: Press the rolled tube with firm pressure so that it retains the "ornament cap" shape with the loop sticking out.

Step 26: Put on hot glue and then stick the cap on the top middle of your ornament.

Step 27: Let it dry. Your Christmas ornament is complete and is ready to hang!
