My DIY fabric covered ornaments!

My DIY fabric covered ornaments wrapped in a bright red plaid fabric.

I could barely wait to write a tutorial about these DIY ornaments I just made.

Making these fabric covered ornaments has been my favorite Christmas DIY project to date.

I am so excited about how they turned out!!

I think it’s because not only are they cute, but they were so easy and inexpensive to make.

This is what you’ll need.

1 to 2 yards of fabric

• 5” Styrofoam balls

• craft glue Mod Podge

• Small craft brush

• scissors

• Measuring tape/ruler

With a measuring tape, measure the size of the ornament from one side to the other. Cut out the strips of fabric about 1/2” longer than the measurement. My pieces of fabric were 2 to 3 inches wide.

Paint the Mod Podge glue onto the backside of the fabric starting from the top. Overlap each strip of the fabric until the whole ornament is covered.

Trim any excess fabric from the top of the ornament. Go over your edges with the Mod Podge to make sure your edges stay down. Don’t worry it will dry clear.

Let dry over night.

That’s it! A super easy update to your old Christmas ornaments.

You can use any other fabric styles or colored ribbon to match your decor.

I also decided to add some jingle balls and use these on my fireplace mantel.

Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Thanks for stopping by!
