PREP

  1. Turn your paper vertically and fold the top and bottom in to create thirds.

  2. Fold the strip in half, open the paper, and glue every layer together.

ORNAMENT

  1. Place the mug on top of the glued paper and trace the mug.

  2. Cut out the rounds.

  3. Punch a hole at the top.

BADGE

  1. Print your badges (right click away from the image, print at 30%) and cut out.

  2. If you’re using the grey version, color them in.

  3. Glue the badges onto the ornament, one on each side.

RIBBON

optional: Cover the color-printed badge with Mod Podge, not the colored one; the colors will smear.

  1. Cut some ribbon/string for the ornament, loop through, and tie a knot.

That’s it!

Enjoy seeing your ornament on your tree this Christmas season.


Happy crafting
