Supplies for the Felt Ball Ornaments

Instructions


Lambs ear is one of my favorite types of greenery to use for crafting. The soft, frosted leaves looks so great next to the felt! I buy a garland from Hobby Lobby when they are 50% off and then use them for different projects.

The first thing I did was cut the lambs ear into small sections with 3-5 leaves on each.

Then, select two or three bunches and hot glue them to the felt ball.

felt ball ornaments - adding the greenery

I wanted to add some color to the ornament. These red felt balls were a bit of a splurge, but you can also use red pom poms or make your own with red roving.

I glued them to the center of the greenery to hide the ends of the stem.

adding the berries to the felt ball ornaments

I used white thread to hang the ornaments on the tree. Poke the needle through the felt and then tie it in a knot.

That's it! Aren't they cute?

I love how they look hanging on a flocked tree.
