I love this time of the year! There are so many fun crafts and delicious foods to make, that I rarely know where to start. One of my favorite holiday crafts is DIY Christmas Ornaments; especially when they are inexpensive and so easy, even kids can help - just like these...
This past weekend I made two adorable DIY Grinch Christmas Ornaments and I was so happy with the way they came out, I couldn't wait to make some more!
While one of the Grinch ornaments was filled with candy, the other was filled with those colored crinkle paper shreds people use to pack gifts and Easter baskets. I never thought it would look so cute in ornaments, but it does!
And since it looks so adorable, I decided to make several different ornaments including two reindeer, a snowman, and a Santa belly with belt. Although I used my Cricut Explore Air, these ornaments will turn out just as cute using craft paint or markers, and even buttons, pom-poms and wiggly eyes!
Head on over to my blog, Bullock's Buzz, for the full list of supplies along with step-by-step instructions for each one of these adorable DIY Christmas Ornaments. And while you are there, be sure to check out our other holiday crafts and recipes!
