Ornament DIY: Day 10

Need:

Rainbow ribbon

Hot glue gun

Lighter

Monofilament

 

Instructions:

  • Cut three pieces of ribbon:

    • Long Piece 1/Long Piece 2 = approximately 4 1/4 inches = the body

    • Short Piece approximately 3 3/4 inches long = the sleeves

depending on how long and wide you would like your coat.

  • Place Short Piece slightly to the right, in the center of Long Piece 1.

  • Fold Long Piece 1 in half, so both edges are lined up.

  • Place Short Piece into the center fold of Long Piece 1, use the hot glue gun to secure it.

  • Use the hot glue gun to secure the rest of Long Piece 1.

  • Take Long Piece 2 and fold it across Short Piece, so it mirrors Long Piece 1.

  • Use the hot glue gun to secure the rest of Long Piece 2.

  • Use a lighter to very lightly melt the edges of the ribbon, so it doesn't fray.

  • Between Long Piece 1 and Long Piece 2, poke a hole into Short Piece.

  • String the monofilament through the hole and tie the ends together to make the loop from which your ornament will hang from.
