How to make easy homemade ornaments?

Do you think these Christmas ornaments would be easy to make?

  • Heres the ornaments. Tell me if you think they would be easy to make? http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/412740/how_to_make_chubby_gingerbread_man.html?cat=24

  • Answer:

    Sounds easy enough. Print the pattern and then enlarge the pattern on a copier. Cut out the pieces and instead of using paint use Puff Paint for the eyes and things. Use fabric glue to put the pieces together. I would use dimentional paint for the trim and hair. Then I would use flat ribbon sandwiched between the pieces to hang the ornament.

yes, i think they are very easy to make. if you want to make them easier or are not very comfortable with painting &/or stuffing here are some more ideas - instead of painting eyes & mouth, you can use red or black felt cutouts or use appropriate color buttons, sequins, beads, etc. similarly, other decorations can be cut & pasted or use ribbons/wool/beaded chains/strings/trinkets ...whatever you can find lying about in your house - again just paste. this will also give each of your gingerbread men a unique or different appearance. to avoid stuffing, just paste two gingerbread cutouts back to back & decorate both. to get a more raised appearance, neatly paste a sheet(s) of paper/ thick paper/cloth/cotton/discarded socks, etc. between the 2 GB men. hope these help enjoy & all the best

It really depends if you are a crafty person. To me, I do not think it looks to awfully hard. It does look as if it would time consuming.

The only tricky part is stuffing the body. If you want to skip that step, you could use stiffened felt, although the gingerbread man will be flat instead of stuffed. Here's what stiffened felt lookes like: http://www.kuningroup.com/cfiles/cr_friendlyfelt.cfm Have fun!
