DIY Holiday Ornaments

Today I’m sharing a trio of festive handmade ornaments created for Clear Scraps. These are perfect for adding a touch of holiday charm to your tree, gift packaging, or seasonal décor. Each ornament features its own unique style, yet they all come together beautifully as a coordinated set.

I've used the Wood Holiday Collection Shapes for this project.

Paint each shape with acrylic paints or whatever you prefer to add color.

Then all there is to do is add embellishments.

 Merry & Bright Bulb Ornament

For this classic ornament shape, I painted the wood base a rich holiday red. Gold gilding wax was added to the top. I used low temp glue to adhere a piece of red metallic twine to the back. The “Merry & Bright” sentiment is a die cut. A cluster of greenery, gold berries, jingle bells, and a bright red bow give it that extra pop of Christmas cheer. This one feels like it came straight from a cozy, traditional holiday home!

Let It Snow Snowflake Ornament

The snowflake design is painted in crisp white and accented with a frosty blue sentiment die cut. I added glittery blue berries, greenery, and silver bells for a chilly little cluster that’s perfect for winter lovers. It sparkles beautifully on the tree!

 Noel Christmas Tree Ornament

This tree-shaped ornament might be my favorite! I painted it a deep evergreen and added the gold “Noel” script die cut along the bottom. The faux greenery and colorful berries give it a mini-decorated-tree look, topped with a golden star die cut for the perfect finishing touch.

These ornaments were so fun to make and come together quickly—great for handmade gifts, craft fairs, or even a family craft night.
