Handmade Felt Christmas Ornaments are the Perfect Crafty Gift

Handmade felt Christmas ornaments are the perfect crafty gift.  These cozy poinsettia and holly mugs would be so sweet to accompany a gift of hot cocoa mix and marshmallows or tea and cookies.

For this project I used the Rubbernecker Stamps Winter Cocoa Set, Mixable Flower Stack, Wreath Set and Greenery #1.

The Mugs

• Cut the mugs using dark red and winter white felt.
• Use dark red cardstock to cut two additional mugs to create a base for the felt.
• Apply a generous amount of Crafter’s Pick tacky glue to the cardstock mugs and attach the felt mugs over them.
• Attach the decorative white scalloped layers to the mugs using tacky glue.
• Allow the glue to dry and then trim off the side edges of the bottom scalloped layers to fit the mug.

The Poinsettia, Pine and Holly Embellishments

• Cut the two sets of flowers using red felt and cut the pine and holly using green felt.
• Use a 1/8″ circle punch to punch out several red felt circles to use for holly and white felt circles for the flower centers.
• Apply tacky glue to the poinsettia, holly and pine and attach them to the mug bases.
• Attach the red felt circles to the holly and the white felt circles to the flower centers using tacky glue.

Finish by attaching green string ornament hangers to the back of the mugs using double stick tape. Cover the tape with a small piece of matching dark red cardstock.
