Making handmade ornaments is one of my favorite holiday crafts! They are so fun to make and can really be as easy or complex as you want. They are perfect for holiday crafternoons or quiet crafting while watching your favorite holiday movie! I have shared lots of DIY Christmas ornament tutorials over the years and today I’ve gathered up my favorites and compiled them in one post! From hand sewing to paper crafting to upcycled ornaments, there is a fun ornament project on this list perfect for your next DIY :)
