Felt is a versatile and easy-to-use material for making ornaments with the kids, for your annual ornament exchange party, or to decorate the tree. These three ornaments are relatively quick and affordable to create and will be treasured as keepsakes for years to come.

These ornaments can be created with basic craft supplies and any Kunin felt.

Reminiscent of ribbon candies, these ornaments can be created with any colors of felt and with leftover holiday beads. I used beads leftover from a decorative necklace I made last year! No jewelry skills are needed to make these and any beads will do. You can add extra interest to these by cutting them with pinking shears, though I’ll admit the red and white one I make in the video looks like a strip of bacon rather than a ribbon candy. Still delicious, either way!

The primitive stars on the Marching Stars stencil by Jennifer Rizzo are especially festive and forgiving in creating these star ornaments. Create these in assembly line fashion for gift tags, hostess gifts, or to hang on a garland.
