Decoupage Christmas Ornaments Are Fun and Easy!

Are you looking for fun and easy decoupage ornaments to make for Christmas? These are so fun and sparkly – any age can try them!

Skills Required: None: Grab a bottle of Mod Podge and some scissors. This is one of the most simple projects you’ll ever do.

I know that right now many of you have little ones at home – they are out of school, it’s cold outside and they are bored. They might need some fun kids Christmas crafts! Kids love making Christmas ornaments!

Good news – Mod Podge is here to help. Since many of you are also setting up trees this weekend, you can set your kids at a table with these fabric scrap Christmas ornaments and let them go to town.

You know – adults actually love making these too. They are perfect for leftover fabric scraps if you’re a seamstress, and you can make some pretty pleasing color combinations with your scraps. Once you are done, slap them on the tree (okay, not so much slapping as placing).

These Mod Podge ornaments are so easy and inexpensive, you probably have everything you need already, and your kids are going to have a great time.

Here are the goods to make the kids Christmas ornaments. A couple of paper balls and some fabric. Oh, styrofoam works too, but I liked these because the hanger was attached. I have little patience when it comes to hanger-ing.

Gather These Supplies

• Mod Podge – your choice of flavors. I used Glitter Gold, Glitter Silver, and Gloss. Glitter Mod Podge is no longer available so I recommend either Sparkle or Extreme Glitter
• Paper mache ornaments – as many as you want to make
• Fabric scraps – I didn’t have any holiday ones specifically so I bought 1/8 yard pieces from JoAnn. They were only around $.30 a piece with the sales right now
• Embellishments – whatever you have lying around; I used ribbon and buttons
• Flat paintbrush – one for everyone!
• Craft Glue
• Scissors

I had a great time decoupaging these! I fully believe adults should join in on kids Christmas crafts. Do you?
