Once you decide what design you like, you\u2019ll need felt, embroidery thread, beads, stuffing and ribbon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cut out two identical copies of your design from the felt\u2013one will be the front side of the ornament, and the other will be the back side. Then, using the thread and beads, create your design on the front side (peep a quick stitching tutorial on YouTube if you&#8217;ve never used a needle and thread before). Once it\u2019s sewn on, attach the back side with thread, leaving a small hole at the top to fill the ornament with stuffing. To finish off the ornament, attach a looped ribbon near the hole and sew it up. Festive, easy and the newest addition to your fam&#8217;s Christmas tree!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>Garlands<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"giveasap-video-container\">\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@chelseazeferina\/video\/7564468329298103566\" data-video-id=\"7564468329298103566\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width:605px; min-width:325px;\">\n<section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@chelseazeferina\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@chelseazeferina?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">@chelseazeferina<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>lil chunky chains \u2728\ud83c\udf85\ud83c\udf84 found this christmas paper pad at Michael\u2019s &#038; just loved the color scheme!!! these are my colors for the season!! <a title=\"diy\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/diy?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#diy<\/a> <a title=\"christmasdiy\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/christmasdiy?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#christmasdiy<\/a> <a title=\"christmasgarland\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/christmasgarland?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#christmasgarland<\/a> <a title=\"colorfulchristmas\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/colorfulchristmas?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#colorfulchristmas<\/a> <a title=\"maximalistchristmas\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/maximalistchristmas?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#maximalistchristmas<\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c Santa Claus Is Coming To Town - Frank Sinatra\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/Santa-Claus-Is-Coming-To-Town-6756974439750977537?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">\u266c Santa Claus Is Coming To Town &#8211; Frank Sinatra<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A garland can be made from just about anything, but paper or wired ribbons are the perfect options for a festive display.

Cut a piece of printer paper (you can also opt for thicker cardstock for durability or colored paper if you&#8217;re feeling crafty) into a square, then fold your paper into tiny triangles. Cut different shapes into the edges of your paper to create unique designs, unfold and watch your room transform into a DIY winter wonderland.
