Welcome to the 5th annual 12 Days of Holiday Ideas event, hosted by Shirley of Intelligent Domestications and Erlene of My Pinterventures Between Nov. 11th and December 6th there will be hundreds of new ideas shared by over 55 Co-host bloggers! Today we're sharing all sorts of wonderful DIY Christmas ornament ideas.

Step 1: Start by preparing your felt. Apply some fabric stiffener to your sheet of white felt. While it's drying, draw four or five different mistletoe shapes on to some card and cut them out. These don't need to be perfect, simply draw them freehand. You can look online for inspiration for what type of shape to draw. Or if you prefer you could print off an image of a mistletoe and use it as a template. Christmas garlands are popular and versatile and there are many ways to display them. You could make a DIY Christmas garland with natural foliage for a traditional design or make this easy mistletoe garland. If you’d prefer a felt mistletoeornament rather than a hairclip, add a hanging loop of elastic or ribbon. A bunch of three sprigs makes a cute ornament. Watch the video at the top of the post to see how I did it.

Cut three (or more, if you want a fuller look) lengths of the floral wire, each approximately 12" long.

I cut out about 4 pieces of felt worth of mistletoe boughs because I wanted my bundle really full. Step Two: Assemble Your Mistletoe This pretty garland is made from fabric but doesn't require sewing – making it perfect for beginner crafters who don't have a sewing machine. What is a Christmas garland? Taking time to decorate your home for the holidays is one of the joys of the season. Every crafter who is planning making their own Christmas decorations will need to decide what type of DIY Christmas garland they would like as part of their decoration planning. Step 2: When the felt is completely dry, use the templates to draw around on to the felt. Then, cut them out, aiming to cut away any of the pencil marks. Though don't worry too much about this as a from a distance any pencil lines won't be visible.This mistletoe ornament is an easy DIY Christmas ornament to make. Hang this felt mistletoe on your Christmas tree or in a doorway--it's a classic Christmas decoration no matter where it's placed. Kisses under the mistletoe – it’s a holiday tradition, but what if you can’t find any mistletoe? Make your own DIYfelt mistletoe, of course! Pull one length of wire out of the bundle, and continue twisting the rest of the wires together (again, one or two good twists). Pull out a second strand of wire, and continue twisting the rest. Follow this pattern until you are left with just two wire branches in the center stem. The tutorial has been update and now includes a printable templateand video tutorial. Watch the video below or scroll down for the step-by-step photo tutorial. Step 3: Take a long piece of twine and tie a knot at one end and then thread on a wooden bead. If your bead moves around, you can tie on another knot below to secure it.

Now you’re ready to cut! Line your mat with your felt—I used 3 shades of green. Insert your Rotary Blade into your Tool 2 carriage and select “Felt, Acrylic” for your material. Make sure your tool and action say “Rotary Blade” and “Rotary Cut,” respectively. Then cut small circles from cream felt for your berries. I used the drawing tools to create a .4-inch wide circle and cut about 25 out of cream felt. Giveaway begins Nov. 8, 2019 and ends Dec. 6, 2019. Winners will be notified by December 13, 2019.

The freezer paper peels off easily and can be re-used. Continue gluing on mistletoe pieces until you like the finished look. Then glue on your berries, trying to evenly disperse them.
