Tree Hanging ornaments

This wonderful looking craft is a fun item which can be made very easily with the things which you can find around the house.

For The Ribbon Tree

You will need:

• A piece of cardboard
• Some wide ribbons
• Narrow ribbons to hang the item
• Fabric glue
• Piece of colored paper
• Hole punch

How to do:

• Cut triangular cardboard. It should be 5 inches (12.5 cm) tall. The size should be about 4 ½ inches (11.25 cm) across the base. A loop of wide green ribbon should be attached at the base to form a trunk.
  
  
• Stick ribbon across the bottom tier and trim the extra portion away. Overlap each tier by repeating the step with different ribbons. Finish it placing the paper at the top.
  
  
• The same thing has to be done on the reverse side as well. Make a hole in the top to put the narrow ribbon through it to make a loop.

For Mr. Snowman

You will need:

• Styrofoam balls- 2 (smaller one for the head and the larger one for the body).
• While glue
• A sheet of tissue paper
• Paint (orange)
• Brush
• Plastic eyes- 2
• Black beads for mouth- 6
• Purple sequins for buttons- 2
• Steel crochet hook- 1.75 mm
• Silver thread

How to do:

• Make strips from the tissue paper by tearing it. Soak it in the combination of glue and water. Mold tissue paper around each ball. Roll a carrot nose from tissue to mold that onto the head. Keep it aside and give it sometime to dry.
  
  
• The crochet hook should be pushed through the body. Pull through a loop of 8 inches long thread. Now, the crochet hook should be hooked through the head from top. Pull it through the loop of thread from the body. A 5 inches (7.5 cm) loop has to be formed at the top and secure it at the body base with a big knot.
  
  
• Use paint brush to paint orange color on the nose. Stick eyes, beads, and sequins to head and body as shown in the figure.
