Ways to Use Printable Christmas Ornaments

  • Tree decorations: color and cut a set for the tree, a garland or a window.
  • Gift tags: punch a hole, write the name on the back and tie the ornament to the present.
  • Party activity for kids: hand out a page and crayons at the table, then hang the finished ornaments.

How to Make Paper Christmas Ornaments

  1. Print the pages on cardstock if you can. It holds its shape and hangs better than regular paper.
  2. Color the ornaments before you cut. A full page is easier to color than a small cut-out.
  3. Cut around the outline of each ornament.
  4. Punch a hole near the top. A small piece of tape or a sticker over the hole keeps a ribbon from tearing the paper.
  5. Thread ribbon, yarn or string through the hole and tie it in a loop.
  6. For a two-sided ornament, print the page twice, color both copies and glue them back to back with the loop between them.
