Holiday Card Ornament
Repurpose your collection of past holiday cards by turning them into beautiful ornaments, which you can hang on your tree or display in a cloche. Make the ornaments as small or large as you like (and as the cards will allow).
How To Make the Holiday Card Ornament
- Cut out 20 circles. For a small ball, use a 1 1/4-inch hole punch; for a large one, trace around the bottom of a glass.
- Cut one more circle from cardboard.
- Draw an equilateral triangle, points touching the circumference. Cut out triangle.
- Trace the triangle onto the inside of each circle. Score and fold along all the lines.
- Use clear-drying craft glue to join one flap from each of two circles; triangles should point in the same direction.
- Using the same technique, attach three more circles to these two, forming what will be the top. Make the bottom the same way.
- Glue remaining 10 circles together, triangle points alternating up and down, forming a line.
- Glue two end flaps to form what will be the middle section, then glue top and bottom to its flaps.
- Hang from silver thread.
