DIY Paper Tube Ornaments | Kid Friendly Ornaments

A simple and affordable DIY kids craft is paper tube ornaments! This kid friendly ornaments project does need parent supervision as scissors and glue are needed.

This kid friendly ornaments project is a simple and affordable DIY Christmas kids craft. You will love making paper tube ornaments with your kids during the holiday season.

DIY Kid Friendly Ornaments

What you’ll need to make kid friendly ornaments:

  • Paper tubes
  • Acrylic Paint and brushes
  • Glue (you can use a hot glue gun or tacky glue)
  • Scissors
  • Glitter
  • Spray Adhesive

You can get really creative with these kid friendly ornaments! Let your little ones paint the tubes whatever colors they would like. Then, parents, cut the tubes horizontally at about ¾” to 1” strips. You’ll then pinch the sides of the tubes to make a leaf-like shape out of the cut tube. Assemble the different shapes into a snowflake, poinsettia, or any fun design your kiddo likes! And, finally, glue the pieces into place.

Crafting Tip: If using a wet glue like Tacky Glue, paper clips can help keep the shape while your glue dries.</p?

If you would like to jazz up your ornament with glitter, spray it with adhesive then shake your glitter all over your ornament.

You can also take your leaf shapes and fold them in half. By placing a folded piece inside of a leaf shape you can add more dimension to the ornament!

Have any questions? Please comment below! If you tried this out, I’d love to know!

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
