Need simple xmas ornament crafts
Stacie Hagwood
As part of a Christmas party that my police substation is giving for
the kids that live in the housing project where I work, the kids will
make Christmas cards and ornaments. I need ideas for 2-3 simple
Christmas ornaments. Craft supplies need to be VERY simple and
inexpensive. Kids will range in age from 4 to 12. Any ideas would be
appreciated.
Webbs
what is the title of the craft book with those ideas, they sound neat
and easy to do.
thank you

Take styrofoam balls - 2 or 3 inch diameter. One ball per craft. You'll
need christmas-y material cut into 1 x 1 squares. Take the ball and poke
holes about 1/4 inch deep with a pencil all over it. Put elmer's glue
into 8-10 holes at a time (if you do more, the glue dries too quickly).
Put one square of material on the end of the pencil and push it down
into the hole with glue and gently twist the pencil out of the hole,
leaving the material. The 'pretty side' of the material should be 'up'.
Do this all over the ball, bottom too.
You can cut the material with pinking shears - makes a neat edge.
You can hotglue little christmas neat-oes on the top with a loop to be
able to hang the ornament.
I've done this with people from 6-86 and the younger kids seem to pickup
on it faster than the older ones!
good luck!
if you have any questions, write me.

i just came across a good idea for xmas decorations that kids can
make in a book i checked out from the library (you could probably
find more good ideas there, too). the idea was to use heavy
colored paper (probably more heavy-weight than construction
paper, but not as heavy as poster board--although the latter
would do well) and cut out outlines of familiar xmas subjects--
an angel, snowman, bell, etc. in the book these cutouts were
mounted on a slightly larger and less detailed version of the
same cutout, but having a slightly different shade of the same
color. this step could be omitted. the part that the kids
get to do is use the "dots" created from lots of action with
a hole punch (which the kids could do well, too, of course)
and glue them on as eyes, noses, decorations, etc. sort of like
using pieces of coal or rocks for a real snowman face. you
get the idea.
another one we're going to try doing every year is tracing each
of our kids' hands on a piece of felt, and decorating it. this
would be a bit more expensive than the first suggestion.
have fun!

I do counted cross stitch, and one simple ornament type I can think of
is made with metallic perforated paper and colored floss. The actual
designs are published by Sekas & Co, but those might be too
challenging for most of the kids. However, you can just cut the
metallic paper into shapes and let the kids sew designs into the paper
at will. Hang with another piece of floss. Many craft shops, sewing
shops and needlework shops would have the material, and it's not
really expensive.

A friend had an ornament her son made at school -- from jigsaw-puzzle
pieces! It was in the shape of a wreath, but I think other holiday shapes
would be possible as well. The pieces were just glued together in a few
layers -- I think the shape was laid out in the first layer, then pieces
were placed on the next layer so they overlapped the first layer, etc. It
appeared that the whole thing was then spray-painted silver, but I think
the pieces could be painted first.
It's a great way to use puzzles that have lost their pieces.

let's see if i can think of some easy ones. Use/distribute these at
your pleasure, just don't charge for them. :)
For all of these, it's a nice idea to write name of the child, and the
year on them somewhere. you could do this on a printer and glue it on
there somewhere.
Styrofoam ball ornament:
Materials:
consumables:
styrofoam ball
wrapping paper with pictures
glue
marker
paperclips/hanging hooks
(glitter)
tools:
scissors
paintbrush
Procedure:
cut pictures from wrapping paper and cover with glue
put on ball
dip paperclip in glue halfway
push paperclip into top of ball
(paint with glue and sprinkle with glitter)
Comments:
smaller pictures work better, less wrinkles...
could just cover the ball completely with lots of
pictures/colored paper
if you let glue dry between applications, multiple glitter
colors may be used. (choose glitter color to go with picture
or just use clear.)
snowpeople ornaments:
Materials:
consumables:
3 sizes of styrofoam ball/ornament
2 flat/round toothpicks/ornament
(.5 round toothpicks/ornament)
glue
marker/paint
paperclips/hanging hooks
(construction paper)
(small twigs)
(popsicle sticks)
(ribbon)
tools:
scissors
paintbrush
(hole punch)
Procedure:
cover flat/round toothipicks with glue
stack three balls on top of each other using 1
toothpick between each ball "joint" (come on, figure it out)
face/buttons:
draw on with marker
(or use hole punch on paper for dots to glue on)
(use half round toothpick painted/markered orange for nose)
Arms:
don't bother
(or cut paper arms out and glue)
(or glue twigs in place)
stick paperclip in head for hook
(or glue to base of two popsicle sticks as "skis" or just
in an x formation)
Top Hat:
don't bother
(or cut a large circle, and a smaller circle out of the
center of it (results in a ring and circle) Cut rectangle
with side as long as circumference of smaller circle (lets
teach a short math lesson! :) form into a top hat.)
Bonnet:
cut a "cressant moon" out of paper and glue and/or use ribbon
to tie in place
Comments:
Have them make one for each member of the family as gifts.
make a small "snowdog" (1 ball/toothpick legs, big floppy tounge.
curled ribbon tail, etc)
Soldier ornament:
Materials:
consumables:
1 round clothspin/ornament
marker/paint
pompom about the size of round top of clothspin
glue
gold metalic thread
metalic silver ribbon
black ribbon
tools:
paintbrush
Procedure:
paint split part of cpin blue
paint black "boots" at very bottom
paint red shirt with white diagonal criscross
paint gold buttons
paint face as desired
glue silver ribbon belt
glue black ribbon stripe down outside of each leg.
use thread to glue a hanging loop to back of head.
Comments:
uniform can be whatever you like.
i like to think "nutcracker" soldier.
you can add fake beard hair or whatever
cookie cutter ornaments:
Materials:
consumables:
Salt dough (optional spices to make smell nice)
(paint)
(glitter)
(food coloring)
tools:
cookie cutters
rolling pin
drinking straw
(dough "factories")
Procedure:
roll out dough to desired thickness
use cookie cutters to cut out shapes
punch hole for string with straw
(use colored dough to add depth)
(use "factory" to cut out shapes, stars, etc)
dry (use instructions from where you got dough recipe)
(decorate with paint/glitter)
eh... these are just a few.. i'm sure you can figure out something
from this.
Have fun!
(while wrtting this i kept thinking "make ornaments fast"... send five
ornament out to the people on the list and send this to 20 or your
friends putting your name at the bottom of the list... :)

i just returned all of those books that i had checked out, so i
can't tell you the specific titles. i found them by doing a
search on "christmas decorations" with the library's online
reference. i found that most of the books had a wide variety
of decorations in terms of "taste" (for lack of a better word),
ease of assembly, etc. i think i checked out about 5 books
and came up with 6-7 ornament ideas that i and/or my 3 YO daughter
might want to make. i don't recall finding a book of decorations
geared just for kids, but you might find something like that at
your library.
good luck!

I did a neat little craft with my second graders when I was still
teaching. It's a little messy, but pretty cheap. Little ones had a
hard time stringing the bell.
Materials: Photocopied music
glitter
glue
string
small jingle bell
hole puncher.
Cut the photocopied music into circles about 3 inches in diameter.
Cut a slit in the side of the circle, and cut a space out of the
center of the circle so you can fold it around to make a cone shape.
Put glue on the outside edge of the circle, and cover with glitter.
Fold into a cone shape and glue. Hold in place until dry.
Punch a hole at the top and tie a thread through the hold. Let the
thread fall through the middle of the "bell" and attach a small jingle
bell to the bottom of the thread to form the clapper. Attach a ribbon
to hang the ornament.
Hope this helps!

Another easy xmas craft if you can get someone to donate the wood:
Yule Log
Materials:
30 cm 5/9 inch diameter log
candles
spray snow
silk pointsetts/mistletoe
tacks/nails/staples
Tools:
table saw
Drill
hammer
Procedure:
Cut one side off log to form flat base.
Cut ends at angle out so base is longer than top: /======\
drill candle sized holes in top
decorate with flowers/vines/snow/etc
Comments:
You could have the logs cut and ready to decorate if kids are small.
I made one a long time ago, i think it still looks good.
see if the local florist will donate silk/plastic flowers.

I learned about a really pretty Christmas ornament at a Christmas craft
share last year. I gave them to almost everyone on my list, and they
were a really big hit! This would be one for kids and adults over about
8 or 9 depending on their skill, but it is pretty easy. My modification
is as follows:
Supplies:
white pipe cleaners (about 4-5" for each ornament)
red roses you can buy (1/2" size, I think - one for each ornament)
white lace (probably about 8" per ornament, but I don't remember for
sure - you can play with it)
green ribbon (about 12" per ornament? - I used 1/8" wide)
hot glue gun
Push the pipe cleaners through the lace (make sure you get lace with a
decent sized hole. I used a roll of "bridal" lace - about 1.5" wide -
that I bought from Walmart) Fasten the ends of the pipe cleaner
together. I do this by folding each end around the other. I like this
better than just twisting them together. Then bring the lace over where
the pipe cleaner ends are fastened to hide it. Make the lace even all
around. When I did it, I had a little triangle hole where the ends of
the lace met. I then glued green ribbon along the raw edges of the lace.
Then glue a little red rose on the lace just below the pipe cleaner
where the edges of the lace meet (at the top of the triangle-shaped
hole, if you have one - some ornaments have lace all the way around with
no little gap, but I liked the little gap). Then make a simple little
bow from the green ribbon and glue it below the rose. Finally make a
small loop of green ribbon and glue it to the back of the ornament at
the top for hanging.
***
The description doesn't sound that great, but they were really beautiful
and everyone I gave them to seemed to LOVE them! Some even thought they
were too pretty to be stored with the other Christmas stuff, so they had
them hanging somewhere in the house all year round.
This craft can also be modified to make napkin rings. Just use longer
pieces of pipe cleaner, and I use 3 roses, enough lace so there is NO
triangle-shaped gap, and I don't use the ribbon. I used the napkin rings
on the table at Christmas time so each person who was there got to take
one home as a gift!
I hope you can use it!

The kids can use tin cans (Just make sure the edges are sanded and
are not sharp). They can make Santa, Angel, Rudolph...Spray paint the can
and decorate.
Use batting for Santa's beard, Cardboard with glitter for the angel
wings...Pipe cleaners for Rudolph's antlers...Googly eyes for the eyes.
Good luck.

Cut cardbord to a holiday shape have glue old puzzle pieces on it,
paint and decorate with glitter ect. (bet you won't have too much
trouble finding puzzles with missing pieces)
cut felt in gingerbread man shape and glue edges leaving a space.
decorate with ribbon buttons ect with a perm marker draw stitch lines
along edges then stuff lightly with batting and glue closed
string tri-beads on a wire (green for a wreath or white and red fro a
candy cane and then bend wire to approriate shape. (tri beads are
those beads with the three little balled points that fit together)
If you have time before the party go to a craft fair at school or fire
house. The one at my kids school always gives me great ideas.!!

Pretzel Wreaths are a very simple favorite of mine for kids and Seniors.
Take the mini regular twist pretzels (I think Walmart has them in big bags
pretty cheap), line them up side by side in the shape of a circle. The
sides will meet down toward the bottom of the curve. These can be glued
together at this point with regular glue. After a little drying time (eat
the left over pretzels while you wait!) You can weave colored ribbons
through the openings in the pretzels and loop a ribbon through the wreath
to hang it with.
If I recall correctly they come out about 5" in diameter, a little large
for an ornament but it will work.
Hope this helps you!

My friends did this paticular craft also. It was spray painted with green
after it was assembled and then dotted with red paint to resemble holly berries.

Someone suggested using tin cans to make Santa, angels, reindeer, etc... This
can also be done (maybe in larger volume) with clothespins. Use the non-snap
type; they are all one piece and have no wire holding them together. They may
be round or flat-sided; each shape has different uses. The flat ones are best
for reindeer. Here are directions:
For reindeer:
Use four flat-sided clothespins. Cut the "legs" off one of the pins. Glue them
together side-to-side as follows: One clothespin with "legs" up to form antlers;
one with legs down for, well, legs; cut-off clothespin for body; one more with
legs down. You end up with a tall skinny reindeer shape. Attach a screw eye in
the middle of the back, and add a string for hanging. Decorate with paint,
fabric, googly eyes, etc. Small red pompoms make nice Rudolph noses, if you're
into that.
You can do the gluing, or have the kids do it, depending on skill level and time
constraints.
For Sants/angels/elves.etc:
Use one round clothespin per figure. Attach a screw eye to the top of the head,
and add a string for hanging. Decorate as desired/appropriate.
You might also have them make simple paper snowflakes: inexpensive, unique,
nondenominational, and lovely in windows. Special papers would be especially
nice for holiday decorations.
Hope this helps. let us know what you decide!
Christie :)

very simple, nice and inexpensive way is to use cookie cutters on styrofoam
sheets. cut out the design with the cookie cutter. lightly sand the
styrofoam so the paint will apply smoothly. use glitter, foiling or paint
add a ribbon and presto.
this is an easy project and the younger kids love using the cookie cutters.

Well, here's what I decided:
1) Pretzel wreaths (I can buy a HUGE bag at Sam's Club for about $2.50)
2) Simple shapes cut out of construction paper and colored with markers for
the little kids
3) Making cones out of cardstock and making "bells" with them.
4) Reindeer made out of popscicle sticks (I saw one this am at a craft
fair...You make an upside-down capital "A" The point is the nose(red
pompom) a bow on the "bridge." Two eyes on either side of the "A." Simple
and inexpensive.
5) candy cane reindeer (candy canes, brown pipe cleaners and eyes)
I TRULY APPRECIATE all the WONDERFUL ideas! (Some I will use for myself)
Some I wasn't able to use because of the skill level/cost of materials
(we're looking at 75-100 kids)/tools necessary, etc. Plus, I refuse to
ever use glitter with these kids again! :)
But i am thrilled and excited!

I haven't read through all the responses but how about twigs that look like
they have arms (and even legs if you can find the right twigs) paint them
red(like santa suits) with a black belt around the middle, white oval face
with the eyes nose and mouth with black, paint two or three black buttons,
black on the ends of the arms for gloves. Glue a little hook on the back
and put the string in to hang. Also acorns are cute santa heads. glue the
hook. The top of the acorn is the red hat. Tan in the center is the face
etc. Don't forget the white beard. Patricia West, Elegant Blooms

You can make reindeer from small candy canes and pipe cleaners. Use either
purchased plastic eyes or have the kids make them from hole punch
confettii. Just twist the pipe cleaner around the top of the cane, crimp
them to look like antlers and glue on the eyes.
The little bubbles that knee-highs come in provide endless possibilities -
fill with Christmasy stuff (garland, pine cone, holly), glue decorations
and a ribbon loop (for a hanger).
We also made some ice skates from felt and large paperclips. Fold the
felt, cut out the shape of the skate, put the clip in for the blade and
sew on the "laces" and tie a bow.
I'll have to check my books for more - Good Luck

While at the fabric store for a class, The instructors were discussing a
children's class they were teaching next month. Several pattern makers have
easy craft patterns out for ornaments, many of them no sew. Most are made of
felt or cloth.
Or try Family Circle, Women's Day, Family Fun magazines. You may have to
check with the library for back issues.

I have made Christmas wreaths with rice, glue and green food coloring.
you add the glue and food coloring to the rice. Mix together and place in an
old lid from butter etc. Make into the shape of wreath and add small red dots
for the berries while still wet. Also if you want to add a hanger push a
paper clip into the wreath before it dries.
Another suggestion is take 3 craft sticks and over lap them so it looks like a
triangle. Cut out two black circles for eyes, two holly leaves, red pompom or
paper for nose and twist brown pipe cleaners for the antlers and tie ribbon at
the top.
One more........Take cone paper cups and paint them green. add glitter or other
ornamentation. Put a paper star on top with hanger glued inbetween the two
star shapes and you have a Christmas tree.

How about collecting small pinecones, spray paint them gold or silver,
or put glue and glitter on them. Then glue a ribbon to the bottom, make
a loop with it for hanging on the tree.

You can make paper plate angels.
Take a plain white paper plate and fold it half.
Then fold in half again.
Cut the plate on the folds.
You will have 4 quarters.
Then cut each quarter in half.
So now you have eight pieces of paper plates.
Cut off about one inch of the point.
Take yellow construction paper and trace around the lid from a gallon milk
carton. Cut them out. This will be the angel's head.
Take yellow construction paper and trace around a roll of masking tape.
Cut these out and then cut it in half.
You will have semicircles. This will be the angels wings.
Now you need glue and a plain wooden clothespin.
You also need little wooden spoons. The kind that you find in those little
cups of ice cream. You can buy these wooden spoons at a craft store.
To put it all together take the angels head and glue it to the back of the
wooden spoon. Top of Spoon. Then glue wings on just below head on front of
spoon. Then take the piece of paper plate you cut and glue in front of
wings. Now glue wooden spoon onto a clothespin.
You can clip it on to the tree.
My three year old son and 6 year old niece love to make these.
And they can do lots in a little time.
Good luck.
Any questions email me.
