DIY Wooden Christmas Ornaments

Red, gold, silver balls.  Sparkly snowflakes, and white snowmen.  All these ornaments are great, but don’t you ever just crave something a little more on the natural side?  And to not have to pay a lot for them?  Well, these ornaments I made were practically free.  It did require some manual labor from Braylen, who helped me gather the sticks at one of our local parks, but he didn’t mind too much;)
The supplies are as minimal or elaborate as you want to make them be:

-Different sizes and thickness of sticks

-Hot glue

-Your choice of yard, string, rope, etc. {I got my red and white spool from Target}

-Pinecones {optional}

These couldn’t have gotten any easier to make either.  I basically thought of any shape that would be 1:easy to make with sticks 2: or resemble Christmas.  For the simple snowflake one I hot glued the sticks stacked on top of each other.  It by no means looked bad just as that, but I wanted to add a little color and fun, so I wrapped it with the string {which also hid any glue- so win, win}.

Here are all of the different ones I came up with:

So thats that.  These are cheap, easy, and you can make them up to be however you want.  Add different shapes, string, or heck- even glitter!

I’ll finally put up our tree tomorrow, and some simple and easy tips for keeping them alive, and lighting!
