Holiday Card Ornament

Repurpose your collection of past holiday cards by turning them into beautiful ornaments, which you can hang on your tree or display in a cloche. Make the ornaments as small or large as you like (and as the cards will allow).

How To Make the Holiday Card Ornament

1. Cut out 20 circles. For a small ball, use a 1 1/4-inch hole punch; for a large one, trace around the bottom of a glass.
2. Cut one more circle from cardboard.
3. Draw an equilateral triangle, points touching the circumference. Cut out triangle.
4. Trace the triangle onto the inside of each circle. Score and fold along all the lines.
5. Use clear-drying craft glue to join one flap from each of two circles; triangles should point in the same direction.
6. Using the same technique, attach three more circles to these two, forming what will be the top. Make the bottom the same way.
7. Glue remaining 10 circles together, triangle points alternating up and down, forming a line.
8. Glue two end flaps to form what will be the middle section, then glue top and bottom to its flaps.
9. Hang from silver thread.
