The fourth ornaments in this series are also from the family archives. Made using yarn, plastic canvas, beads, pom poms, googly eyes and a jingle bell, these are super duper cute. Unfortunately, my mom and I are unsure who actually crafted this poinsettia and birdie.
First Ornament of Christmas (vintage felt ice skater)
Second Ornament of Christmas (easy DIY poinsettia)
Third Ornament of Christmas (scroll-sawed snowflakes)
The white flower is supposed to be a poinsettia and it’s what inspired my design for the second ornament of Christmas. Both of these little dudes are kid-friendly if you’re looking for something to entertain kiddos with during the holidays. You can buy plastic yarn needles that are easy for kids to use – I did a lot of crafts as a kid with plastic canvas, yarn and plastic needles. Here are some extra shots of today’s ornaments if you want to figure out how to make them for yourself.
I would like to have this pattern again, the pattern i had burned when my house did. I made several of these and used them to go with name tags I think they are cute.
I love to do plastic canvas

I love these ornaments. I remember making them out of manilla paper and tissue paper with my students when I started teaching in the 60’s. I would love to try them in plastic canvas.

Hi Debbie,
I don’t have this pattern, just the finished ornament. In the photos, you can see a lot of what’s going on in each of these (all edges are whip stitched over, for example). I would get creative and come up with your own pattern – that would be so special! Let me know if you need any help guesstimating counts, etc.
Best wishes,
Heidi
