Jingle Origami Christmas Wreath Ornament


When I saw Tina Sutton's "Jingle" origami wreath here, I knew I had to try one of these! What a pretty tree ornament or a gift ornament this can be.

 
You can find the origami tutorial here. It's easy AND fun!

I used 12 four-inch squares of Close To My Heart "Jingle" papers, and an additional four-inch square of cardstock for the measuring tool.


I cut two holly leaves and attached them with Liquid Glass. (You could also use a cluster of silk holly leaves or a leaf punch.) The sheer white ribbon I used is White Colonial from CTMH.


I painted the pearls using a Hollyhock marker to create the holly berries.


This was a big hit at my CTMH Open House yesterday afternoon! Thanks for the heads up, Tina! Keep up the great work.


Happy new week, everyone!

  1. Jane,
    What a pretty ornament! I love it!
    I didn't know you could color the pearls with our markers!?!? I'll have to try that.
    Have a great week!
