With a whole host of pregnant friends who are due in November in December, these ornaments have been perfect “baby’s first Christmas” gifts. The one pictured was for Baby Jack, born December 4th.
To make a monogrammed felt christmas tree, you’ll need:
-two small pieces of felt (maybe 4x6ish each?)
-embroidery thread and needle
-brads
-ribbon
-2 small pom poms
1. Monogram a piece of green felt with an initial. Cut both pieces of felt into our ‘tree’ shape (I used pinking shears and eyeballed a tree-ish shape). Poke your brads through one of the layers in an ornament-y fashion.
2. Sew the two layers together (sew a ribbon in between the layers at the top of the tree).
3. Add the pom poms on both sides as a tree topper.
4. Use the monogrammed ornament as a baby’s first Christmas ornament for baby Jack (or another 2009-born little one).
These turned out darling, and I bet you could find lots of uses for them.
