Project 1: Hand‑Embroidered Felt Bird Ornaments

Materials Needed

Printable bird silhouette (download from christmasornaments site)
Felt sheets in festive colors
Embroidery floss or needle‑felting wool
Scissors, glue gun, and a thin ribbon
Optional: Small beads for eyes

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

1. Print and trace the bird outline onto a piece of tracing paper. Place the tracing paper on felt and trace the shape with a fabric marker.

2. Cut the felt along the traced lines. You’ll need two identical pieces for the front and back of the bird.

3. Embroider the details. Using a simple running stitch, add a beak, wing patterns, and a tiny heart on the chest. If you prefer needle‑felting, gently rub the wool into the felt to create a raised texture.

4. Assemble the ornament. Align the two felt pieces, leaving a small opening at the top. Apply a thin line of glue around the edges, then press together. Once the glue sets, poke a tiny hole at the opening, insert a ribbon loop, and seal the gap with a dab of glue.

This felt bird ornament is a charming addition to any Christmas tree and makes a thoughtful handmade gift.
