Homemade Christmas Ornaments
"The Joy of Colors" Submitted by Florentina Tudosie of Bucharest, Romania This year's
star in my Christmas tree was this bauble. Made with very vibrant felt colors,
it is impossible not to be noted near the green tree branches! I have offered
some of these to my friends, I have taught others how to make it in workshops. For
this bauble you will need: Craft glue or double sided adhesive Beads Thread and needle Ribbon Directions: The
fun part is that you can choose and mix colors as you wish, here is where
imagination plays her role. I chose to use the rainbow colors because for me,
they are always the most balanced combination of colors. To do
them, you simply cut 6 circles of felt 7 to 2 cm – you can also decide the
number of circles you want to put and the length of them. Then you start putting
the circles one after another, you glue them and in the end you sew a snowflake
using white beads! You attach a ribbon and that’s all. Now you have a pretty
and simple to make colorful bauble. For
making this bauble I was inspired by a project from the book “Fa La La La Felt,”
most accurate, from a project made by Laura Howard.
