It's never too early to begin crafting for Christmas. These miniature ornaments are made from scrap wood, and are an easy beginner project. They're great for tiny trees and for doll house ornaments.
Supplies and Equipment for the Miniature Ornaments
Instructions for Making the Miniature Ornaments
- Measure the thickness of the scrap. I used a piece of stair tread, so my blocks are 1" cubes. This will be the size of the cube. Mark cut lines on the scrap wood.
- Use a band saw to cut the blocks.
- Sand the edges on the disc sander.
- With the drill press, drill a pilot hole for the screw eye in the center of one side.
- Cut six squares from the patterned paper slightly smaller than the side of the block. Use Mod Podge to adhere these to the block.
- Add the screw eyes.
- Decorate the blocks with ribbon and jingle bells.
