Handmade Christmas Ornaments

These ornaments are so easy to make and look great on the Christmas tree. Each one is made with a silver lid on that is found on the top of a can of frozen juice.

First, wash and dry the lid. Then cut two 6.5cm circles from your choice of patterned paper or solid cardstock and adhere the circles to either side of the juice lid. Next, embellish one or both sides of your ornament with stamps and stickers. Last, punch a whole in the top and add a string for hanging on the tree.

ALTERNATIVE: Because of the thickness of the lid, I have to use the Crop-A-Dile Big Bite II to punch the hole. If you don't own this tool, before you adhere your circle to the lid, use a liquid adhesive to attach your string to the lid, once it dries, you can attach the circle.


Thank for looking,
Racquel
