Christmas Ornaments- Minature Presents



Made by Amanda Formaro



What you'll need:

• Wooden cubes
• Acrylic paint in festive colors
• Festive ribbon
• White craft glue

How to make it:

1. Paint each cube with desired color. Let dry.
2. If you like, make polka dots on your cube using a toothpick dipped in paint. Let dry (see image).
3. Cut a piece of ribbon about 12 inches long. Find the center of the ribbon and place a painted cube onto it. Wrap the ribbon around the cube as you would a regular present.
4. Tie the ends into a bow, and then double knot the bow.
5. Take the two open ends of the ribbon and bring the up together, tie in a knot at the top to create the hanger.
6. Use a few dots of white glue to secure the ribbon to the cube.

Tips:

• Wood cubes are available at your local craft supply store.
• Let children pick whatever colors they like for the paint, festive or holiday colors are not a requirement!
• If you prefer to make this a recycling project, use small boxes, such as a toothpick box.
