Mouse Felt Ornament

Felt Ornament

 

Cookie cutters make this craft 100% easier.  It is a lot easier to follow a pattern than to freehand a shape. This can be a fun kid craft as well (use Elmer’s Glue instead of hot glue gun).

ornament materials

The basic materials needed are: felt, sharp scissors (FYI-the felt dulls scissors fast!), a pen or marking pencil and glue (I use hot glue). The cookie cutter was purchased off Amazon. SODIAL- Mickey Mouse Face Shape Cookie Cutter

Use a cookie cutter for the shape and trace it.  Cut along the lines made.

After gluing on the back, I added a couple dots of yellow paint.  This ornament is ready for the Christmas tree. If you use Elmer’s Glue, you will want to wait about 2 hours for the glue to dry before hanging it up.
