Tired of spending money on Christmas Tree décor? Consider doing some DIY Christmas ornaments this year! One Christmas craft idea I felt would be pretty cool to see are some Prayer Circle Ornaments. These ornaments personalize the Christmas experience for friends and family, and focus on prayer.
3 Simple Paper Prayer Circle Ornaments:
- Whispering Wish:
- Materials: Gold construction paper, glitter glue, pencil, white thread.
- Cut the circle, trace a smaller circle inside to create a frame.
- Write a short prayer or wish inside the frame in glitter glue.
- Punch a hole at the top and thread white thread for hanging.
- This ornament shimmers like starlight, carrying hopes and dreams into the air.
- Stained Glass Blessing:
- Materials: Tissue paper in various colors, white tissue paper, black marker, transparent tape, yarn.
- Glue small pieces of colored tissue paper onto the white tissue paper to create a mosaic design.
- Draw stained glass window outlines with a black marker.
- Fold the circle in half, then in half again to create a triangle. Apply transparent tape at the folds to hold it together.
- Punch a hole and attach yarn for hanging. This ornament transforms with the light, casting colorful blessings on surrounding decorations.
- Folded Prayer Flag:
- Materials: Decorative scrapbook paper, metallic markers, hole punch, ribbon.
- Fold the circle in half twice, then again in half diagonally to create a small flag.
- Write a short prayer on each triangle section with metallic markers.
- Unfold and punch a hole at the top. Thread ribbon through the hole and tie a loop for hanging.
- This ornament flutters gently, sending prayers on the wind like miniature banners of faith.
Bonus Tip: Personalize any of these Prayer Circle Ornaments by adding small charms, beads, or glitter for extra sparkle and meaning. Enjoy crafting and spreading prayerful cheer this Christmas!
