Snowy Twig Homemade Christmas Ornaments- One Item Challenge

I’m so happy to have been invited to join the one item challenge this year! Each Wednesday in November a group of bloggers will be given one item and are challenged to create a project. This week the item is twigs. I’ve created these easy to make Snowy Twig Homemade Christmas Ornaments.

One Item Project Challenge 2014

I actually had some help with this idea! After learning to use the Bow-It-All our exchange student Katharina had the idea to group the twigs and adorn them with one of the cute May Arts Ribbon silk bows.

How to make Snowy Christmas Tree Ornaments

  • Snip twigs from a tree approx 8″ long.
  • Group 6-8 twigs together wrapping the cut end with a small piece of craft wire approx 1″ down from the top.
  • Add a small piece of looped twine for hanging your twig ornaments.
  • Cover the wire wraps with a small piece of 2″ Natural Cotton ribbon overlapping on the back side.
  • Brush twigs with Mod Podge  and sprinkle with white glitter. Hang to dry.
  • Once dry, embellish the front side of the twig ornament with a ribbon bow.

  1. This is such a great idea…so simple and yet it would be such a great addition to a woodland themed tree…:) good job!

  2. Love how they’re all a bit different, and that ribbon is gorgeous. A bunch of them on the tree would look so pretty. Thanks for playing along!

  3. Virginia,
    Found your link at DIY Sunday! These are lovely! I have become intrigued with twig decor. Not to mention that one just has to go outside to collect plenty of materials to use! This project is on my to do list.
