These are some decorations that I made last year for everyone I knew. They are so easy and take minutes!
What you need:
* Felt
* Contrasting thread
* Beads or other decorative bits and pieces
* Ribbon
* Stuffing
What you need to do:
1. Decide what shape you want to make your decorations. I made stars, gingerbread men, Christmas trees, angels.
2. Make a template so that all your shapes are the same size.
3. For every decoration you need 2 of the same shape.
4. Taking your 2 shapes and a piece of ribbon, loop the ribbon over and start by sewing the loop ends to the top of the two shapes in between them, to make the hanger. Then blanket stitch around three quarters of the shape leaving a gap to add the stuffing.
5. Stuff the decoration leaving it nice and plump.
6. Stitch the last quarter of the decoration and your done!
"It's all sewn up in a neat little package!"
