🌟 15 BEST CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT DIYS THAT ARE EASY TO MAKE

[@gretchenwilson1482]

First time watching your video! I am totally impressed with the quality of your ornaments, very professional! I am 78 and have been doing all kinds of crafts, mixed media, paper crafts, mainly cards, stitching! We have would have been married 56 years and out first Christmas was hand made ornaments, and have continued to make. Last year was the first year I didn’t have my traditional tree, I went with a smaller slimline that I can handle by myself, it’s all blue, silver, white! In 1972 I organized a boutique to sell handmade items, that year me made $2000. Dollars, most of the ornaments sold for 25 cents, the next year was $5000 in one day. I continue doing this at different locations as we moved. In 1984 I opened my business, all items on consignment. When I had to close after nine years I was buying from 206 cottage industries! It’s still in my blood! Great ideas and very professional!❄️🎄❄️

Fantastic. 👌💛

[@LaurieLunsford-x7i]

The tree napkin ornament is much prettier with the sparkle on it! LOVE it!!!

[@brandyperry5450]

I totally agree! The glitter made the ornament.

[@audreyal-hinai6292]

I LOVED the BEADED SNOWFLAKE❤❤❤

[@kathykoecher6211]

I try to change my tree every year,it’s so much fun because the grandkids love checking up what grandma put on tree this year.

[@charleneblake1146]

I go to various Thrift stores and purchase the old Xmas ornaments. Once home, I cover them with left-over Christmas wrapping paper, with the help of my grandkids. They get to take the ornaments they decorated home, and I get to spend precious time with them!!!

[@sandilewis9706]

I mix old favorites with homemade and new purchased ornaments for my tree. Emily I have followed you for quite a while and must tell you are one of my very favorite crafters. Thank you for all the inspiration.😊🙏🌲

[@tarataylor6845]

Mi children, and now grandchildren, get a new ornament every year. Thys began on miyoldest daughters first christmas 🎄,29 years ago. Now 10+ new ornaments are added to the tree every year, to go along with 29 years worth of old ornaments.

[@lynnwilcoxson7]

35 yrs for my daughter😊 Started this tradition the Chirstmas before she was born.

[@GabyPerea]

I’ve been doing that the past few something else I’m forgetting, but the ornaments are the best addition. Especially if it’s one we got on a family vacation. TYFS!!!❤

[@WendyBurtenshaw-yl2hs]

What a lovely idea😊

[@bethalufkin]

I love the vintage look for ornaments for my tree, it reminds me of my tree when I was a child. I can't wait to try some of these. I add new ornaments to my tree each year, but keep ones that have meaning to me.

[@RoseHorrell]

I added an ornament for each of my children starting with their 1st Christmas. When they had a home of their own I gave them their ornaments. When I was blessed with grandchildren I added an ornament each year with their picture on it until they graduated from high school when I no longer got school pictures each year.

[@wendyaminzadeh2165]

I am sorry to hear that. Are they made at you.?.

[@valerieallison8055]

I love all these ornaments. Great job. I love the vintage santas. I have made new ornaments each year for the past 49 years. Give them gifts. Started just making them for my children, then added them to everyones gifts.

[@CatsandPaws23]

All your ornaments are so unique, love them all! As far as my tree I use all my special ornaments, but each year I always add new ones! I have some ornaments my kids and grandkids made me, so they are a must!! Thank you for all your talent, I’ve learned so much!!

[@maryannstout7600]

Using “leftover “ scraps of paper, wood,ribbon,anything else is just brilliant!!! Your ideas are so clever and creative. It’s fun watching you make ornaments because I’m always surprised by what idea you come up with next. The first Christmas I was married we didn’t have room for a tree.. I found a small two feet tall plastic tree 🌲 and made stuffed ornaments for it: candy canes, stuffed baubles and wrapped red ribbon 🎀 around them. Then I made a pretty little bows to tie onto ends of branches. It all looked so cute. I already had a handmade gold ⭐️ someone had made for me a year before to put on top. Voila, our little tree 🌲 fit perfectly on the breakfast table!! I love 💕 home crafted decorations!!!❤ We used those ornaments and added to them all while raising the kids. 👧 The all time favorite 😍 ornaments were homemade shaped sugar cookies and gingerbread cookies wrapped in plastic wrap and hung on the tree 🌲. Of course we had to keep making these because they seemed to disappear 🫥 with great regularity. (Now how did that happen?)lol😊

[@debraagee5095]

Hi Emily, I love all of these ornaments! I sometimes put up different ornaments on our tree, My fav is the paper book star and the craft stick star!

[@BarbaraMead-m7b]

Awesome. I just now ran into your ornaments. I’m not so into the rustic look but seeing all your ideas gave me other ways to use your brilliant ideas! Thank You!

[@brendaborgmeyer7772]

My daughter added old jewelry to the center of star. Gorgeous.

[@sherrybeckwith6006]

Very talented. Great imagination. Love everything ❤

[@proud2bktsmama]

Just found you here on KZbin, and you have some great ideas! Thanks for sharing. I love ornaments. I try to add one handmade ornament to my tree each year, plus put one aside for my granddaughter's tree (when she grows up).

[@valeriefoster8274]

Ever since we were first married and I made all of my ornaments I have continued adding newly made ones each year I love all of your ideas they are all so cute

[@bobbyb8335]

We use the same ornaments every Christmas. My wife and I have collected them for many years and they have special meaning to us.

[@maryschultze624]

Same here, I have some that are 38 years old and still use them. My mom made most of those old ones, she passed in 2004, I’ll never get rid of them.

[@FarmCharmChic]

How fun and such a beautiful way to keep memories.

[@sherrysanfilippo4406]

Really enjoyed watching this video - it gave me a lot of ideas for my 4 trees: 12’ gold, white and glass; 4’ rustic and for children and 2 4’ tartan trees (lots of plaid and English ornaments). Definitely going to do those “vintage” ornaments, but I’ll hang them with organza ribbon.

[@dedeanderson7880]

My sister would absolutely love receiving your vintage antique looking Santa ornaments! ❤

[@dedeanderson7880]

I love the round ornament with the tree with all the glitter ❤

[@SherryRector]

Adore these copper trees

[@conniewells420]

Very beautiful ornaments, classy!

[@marynorquist739]

I love the Christmas tree with lots of glitter. Plain and simple but with a glitter kick!

[@teresaportan2860]

I use same ornaments every year and add one or two more. Have my tree for 40 years and love it.

[@sandrabiscarner9587]

The stars would look really pretty with a pretty gem in the center. Doing “mod podge” with Elmer glue (not to saying anyone is wrong by using that”, but when my kids were in Elementary school and they held up pretty good maybe 5 years before the glue started yellowing and breaking down.

[@wildwindtreasures5450]

Loved all the ornaments!! I change my decorations each year but do use a few of the same each year. Thanks so much for this video

[@ShawnaFigueroa4930]

I add new ornaments every year. I have all the ornaments from my kids childhood etc... I would love to make a themed tree... but I just love all of the sentimental ornaments... every ornament has a memory attached

[@marynorquist739]

I use my favorite ornaments every year but I also add new ones or new techniques. Lots of ribbon, glittery florals, etc. Keeps it fresh but I want to use my ornaments too!

[@leannaherbert2455]

I keep a lot of the ornaments but I always add something new every year. It has gotten to where I also have had to start removing some of the old to add the new. Last year I went all out and flocked my tree. It turned out beautiful. There is one thing that I do the same every year. If I get to put it up very soon, I will send you a picture. Love your ideas. ❤

[@margaretdevries8090]

I am very impressed with your ornaments ! They look classy! Not like a child put them together ! Not knocking children’s ornaments , but I’m older and have given all the old ornaments to my kids to use !

[@bonnie6231]

I have many sentimental ornaments I use each year on the tree. But, if I see something new that invokes a sentimental thought, I will buy that and add it either to my tree or hang it somewhere around the house. I definitely love the little tag Christmas ornaments you made❣️ I have several calendars I’ve kept through the years that I refused to dispose of because they had both the small sample size on the back that could be repurposed and even some of the inside full size images could be repurposed. Now, I thank you for sharing your ideas, because they’ve inspired me with lovely ideas.😊

[@kristibbradshaw]

Great ideas. I love the patina trees. As for changing out ornaments from year to year; my ornaments are very special to me, so I never get rid of them, I only add. We now have a Christmas tree forest, not just a single tree. Lol. It’s gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.

[@brendaborgmeyer7772]

I love the round buffalo check ornament and I’m putting the initial of the family in the center of the tree or snowflake of the family that I am giving it to.

[@elainelancaster3628]

I mix it up, some old and sentimental ornaments, with new to create new memories for my kids and grandkids.

[@cherylcain890]

I realize this video is over a year old, but I’m going to post anyway! I do change my ornaments every year. My husband liked multi colored lights, and I love the white. I feel the white is like spotlight on the ornaments. We took turns with the lights and ornament choices. One year I had all only of my blown glass and Radco ornaments, another year I got beautiful red poinsettias, l left the wire stem long and just poked them into the tree branches. The only other thing I put that year were hand crocheted snowflakes. I know there are more beautiful ideas but am having trouble remembering. My husband passed away two weeks before Christmas five years ago and I stopped decorating. It’s too hard. I love all of your ideas, even though I don’t decorate I make ornaments and gift tags to give as gifts. I love everything you made!♥️🙏🏻

[@hildatyburczy8221]

So sorry for your loss! I don’t decorate either because my husband’s favorite holiday was Christmas and he passed in 2021! 😞. I left my tree up until February so he could look at it from his hospital bed which was in our living room!

[@RoseD2016]

Your ornament are awesome. I make some too every year. My family gets a new ornament every year. They get one for me also. I use the same ornaments every year. Sometimes since I have so many I will use one color decorations. I just love the festive time …my tree I could keep up all year since I love to see it. The lights the ornaments can be so lovely. I would love to see your tree decorated with all you created here. They are so beautiful. Simple sometimes is the best. The beads were great. 💖🤗🎄

[@sherrybeckwith6006]

Star ornaments looks great!

[@brendatucker35]

Opps, my favorite is the last one, the star from craft sticks!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@lorettavalmorbida7793]

My favorite was the two paper stars so very beautiful.

[@gerrywolfe2549]

I do a mix on my Christmas tree. Also, I always buy a new ornament each year. Great video, lots of ideas.

[@debiegordon3787]

I love those OLD TIME POSTCARDS. I change my whole tree every yr & pick from ornaments collected. And always use faux 🌹RED ROSES in my tree no matter what🌹🌹🌹🌲🌲🌲

[@robynrogers6521]

My tree is different every year, l have colllected my decos over the years so have just about every colour. The kids cant wait each year to see the colours. At the start I made my own, still have a lot of them. Loved your ideas, thankyou from Australia

[@pamelabrown667]

That white circle with the Christmas tree was precious 💕 i would only put the glitter at the bottom at set the tree into the snow. But yours was so pretty 💕

[@CarolynS.Cooper-io4jw]

The glitter on the last one reminds me of the sugared ornaments of my childhood ! Love all of your ornaments !

[@tracistenner7791]

i love all of these adorable ornaments i think the little calendar ornaments are my favorite. I have the same tree every year and add new special memento ornaments each year. I have lots of handmade ornaments from my parents when we were growing up. crafting was always our bonding time at christmas. thanks for sharing your talent.

[@sandrabiscarner9587]

Our real tree is all of my family ornaments that we have collected or have been given through the years. Then my artificial tree that I started a few years ago it’s a land of sweets. With the real large ornaments to small I have bought those at Hobby Lobby and Walmart. One thing I do on the family tree to change it up, I change the ribbon and the way it’s placed. When my husband and I first got married we didn’t have many ornaments, so i used my stuff animals especially when there are big gaps.

[@lindabarrington5400]

I loved what you did to the wood weaved star, I have one and its been sitting in my craft room, now I’m thrilled that I can copy you. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@harryburkett7754]

On the paper (book pages) star, you could paint it red, add red glitter and a few small circles of felt and it would resemble a beautiful Christmas poinsettia.

[@dandilee98]

Thank you for sharing these beautiful ornament ideas. I use the same ornaments year after year, some are old and have been in the family for years and some are ornaments I made for my children when they were small.

[@TerriNeville]

I love that you add some glitter to your projects it does make it Christmas! I use to do different trees but we are in a small house so the tree is also. I love making crafts, and you alway inspired me!Thanks some much. Terri

[@patskelton4202]

I really love All of your ornaments!! I usually make my tree the same. I made lots of felt ornaments years ago and add some special ones here and there! One of my special Angels on the top !

[@paulineconley9076]

I love the sparkle on the tree ornament.

[@debbiemiller9373]

My first time watching our program and I'm impressed. 😊

[@thesentimentalsoul3683]

Tyvm for sharing. The vintage paper crafts w metallic pipecleaner frames are perfect. Im excited to try the patina ornaments too.

[@kathypenner81]

You are one talented lady! I love your taste….and everything you did was right on and top notch. They look so professional.

[@dionnedundas3054]

Love the calendar wood tag idea. Gave me ideas for other projects.

[@lindadavis-ys1cf]

Love the calender Ornaments. Using plastic bag for stuffing?..... great idea!

[@auntmemeintennessee8033]

I love the faux tin Christmas tree ornaments! I am going to make some of these, but I will probably add a little frosted glitter to the edges of the tree branches, to give it a little shimmer, from the glow of my tree lights. I love that patina look.

[@deliasolis5119]

This is my first time watching your videos love them. We have a new color theme each year or a type of theme such as rustic, elegance etc that will go with the color. This year we have elegance with white and champagne colors. I love doing this. My hubby not so much as we have different large costco totes with Christmas themes in the garage.

[@marilynb]

I love the glitter on the Christmas tree ornament

[@teresachristansen4421]

Your ornaments are so creative. I love them all. Thank you for sharing. You have inspired me.

[@Laulie1960]

Love the ornaments made from calendars. I keep the same ornaments up but always add one new one from a trip I took that year.

[@hollyhager3075]

I so love your creativity, you narrate well, and there is not a lot of down time! I will keep watching,

[@KellyGreen-y9n]

Liked all of the ornaments. My favorite is the calendar one. I save my calendars every year. Think i will go through them and try to make some ornaments ornaments like yours. Thanks for all of your great ideas ❤

[@lisawarner1556]

I have a snowman tree every year and I add a new ornament each year. I have a small Irish tree as well that sits on my countertop! ❤

[@shirleyfoster8056]

Wow, great job! I really loved them all. I try to change my tree up a little each year. Thank you for sharing your great talent with us. Have a beautiful and blessed day! 🙏✨🎄

[@tracyblackburn665]

I normally keep the same ornaments on the tree but will add 1 new one every year. Love your videos and diys

[@jackittle7960]

I just bag my 3' tree, decorations and all, and Put it away. Every year I add my new ornaments and usually remove some old ones. I love your ornaments and I may change my ways.

[@tamerakerns7136]

I LOVE your crafts! They're so amazing

[@FarmCharmChic]

Thank you! 😊

[@dianamccumbers9139]

Very nicely done. Love them. I change the theme every year. One year snowmen next year buffalo check etc. great job on all

[@dianbutler4165]

I absolutely loved this video! I am going to make some of these. Thank you!

[@dirtyketovore6175]

I keep my favorite ones and add new ones. I take my older ornaments and use them as garlands OR just hang them around the house on door knobs...3M clear hanging on walls. I also last year gave them away on gifts as tags. People really do love an Ornament on a gift box. I have extra's out also and give away as a gift, just by itself for those unexpected visitors. Everyone leaves with a little reminder of them being here! ALSO, gift them out on THANKSGIVING DAY so they can hang them on their tree when they put it up, that year! XOXO Althea

[@dirtyketovore6175]

O' and my favorite was the last star. Simple and easy and rustic from childhood making.

[@suepennypacker4263]

Love the wooden beads

[@kathyray8165]

❤❤ this Ornament Video, watched again to get started Early on them,thanks again ❤, Kathylyn from N.Mississippi ❤

[@donnalane5604]

The double sided ornaments look great

[@nettajar1938]

Love your calendar ornaments; love the material snowflake; like the JOY ornament, also; the beaded snowflake with bell, is nice; the double sided (snowflake/tree) is darn cute; your star/snowflake is so elegant looking, I wouldn't embellish it any more than you already have; the tags are so nice (I'm the "less is more" type of person); regarding your tree napkin ornament, I was not too sure about the glitter, but when it was finished . . . WOW; liked the way you made the wooden star; Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.

[@rebeccasorensen7925]

Loved the trees and stars most of all. Very cute ideas. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@janicelange2160]

Love the set of 3 ornaments, try using furniture markers for edges, they work great.❤

[@jjcar96]

Thank you for all the amazing ideas! We do the same ornaments every year plus the new ones from the year before. It's very eclectic.

[@LindaConder-nn7uy]

Just a nice plain star on the tree with glitter 1:10:40 ever where! Really the tin trees. And the wired star!! But I really liked them all!! ❤️❤️❤️Linda Canada

[@elenagonzalez4190]

My ornaments are like old friends who come to visit once a year but this year I’m tempted to make homemade ornaments. Still thinking about it

[@susanbroome6121]

Absolutely love you and your ideas! My favorite is the craft stick window frame. Went straight to DT and bought supplies to do this one! Due to a rambunctious lab puppy I lost some ornaments this year, and was so glad to find these new and clever ways to create my own!!

[@FarmCharmChic]

Oh the joys of raising a puppy 😂 good thing they’re so dang cute and we love them way too much! I’m so glad this video helped you. And good luck with your sweet puppy.

[@cindyr9790]

Thanks for the inspiration! I love the vintage paper ornaments and star. So many ideas are popping in my head now. Lol

[@soapsforlove4168]

I absolutely love the ornaments with the calendar pictures, they are my favorites. Great job on all of them, I appreciate the time it took for you to share all of these.

[@lucyschaefer2144]

Thank you for the good ideas. I changed my tree ornaments every year

[@LaurieLunsford-x7i]

Great idea to use the pictures from the BACK of the calendars!!! Waste nothing!!!😊

[@maryschultze624]

These are all gorgeous! I definitely use the same ones. God bless

[@maryschultze624]

The round w/ tree, I thought at first a border around the edge… but I love it with the back ground covered in glitter!

[@christinabrittain5735]

I love the glitter on your projects.

[@nannyfufu]

I just starred changing it last year.

[@marciaspies6575]

We used to just decorate our tree with the same ornaments each year, especially when our kids were small and made homemade ornaments in school. Now the kids are all grown so we changed to a smaller tree. I have enough ornaments saved through the years, that we decorate different each year. One year may be all angels. Next may be all cardinals. Then snowmen or traditional.

[@EvaGoetzinger-z4k]

They are so cutethe jingle bells and beads

[@loridarnell9002]

Hi Emily. These projects are wonderful. No surprise because you are the creator. 😊 I really love the way you transform simple materials into such classy treasures. Thanks again for the inspiration. You are so top notch. Stay safe. ❤😊🎄

[@FarmCharmChic]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@AngelaPEvans]

Adored all of them, very festive. You did awesome with the glitter on the Christmas 🎄 napkin it made the napkin pop, I usually don't like glitter but you made it very nice. Thank you.😊

[@kaymenefee7613]

These were so cute. I make ornaments to give as gifts because they are fun to make.

[@belindahamilton7876]

I love the paper folded stars

[@Cathewiese]

First time watching your video...WOW!! beautiful ideas. So creative and high-end. Loved every one of your ideas. I can't wait to start working on this years new ideas and new decorations!! THANK YOU so much!!

[@theresafaust5690]

Great projects. I love the calendar and vintage ornaments. I def want to try to Patina something. I change my tree theme every couple of years, keeping my favorite/sentimental ornaments and using them with the new theme. Sometimes I won’t use my saved ornaments for a couple of years.
