Simple homemade ornaments add a lot to the coziness of Christmas. I love the idea of having the kids make their own ornaments to display at home or give as gifts. Today I am sharing a simple handmade scrap ribbon ornament that is perfect for older children to make and share.
To make this adorable scrap ribbon ornament: 1) Start with a twig. We found this one on the ground in our back yard. 2) Use hot glue to attach a piece of yarn or twine to the top of the twig. 3) Cut and tie strips of scrap ribbon to the twig.
Tips:Cut the strips the same length, tie them to the twig, and THEN cut the ribbons. Also... stiff ribbons work better.
I love this simple and rustic scrap ribbon ornament, don't you? It's the perfect use for all the scrap ribbon you have lying around the house.
Awesome craft idea, super easy to plan and execute!
