Christmas ornaments Archives - Farmhouse Chic Blog

The other day I was so excited to share this project with you guys, and please don’t get me wrong, I love them… But, I had a brilliant idea the other day, and I was so excited with how they turned out!

A few weeks back I had bought a 10 pack of Chalkboard cardstock from Hobby Lobby for $1.99. I was super excited to use these for parties, get togethers, etc. Then I decided to use them as ornaments! Want to know how?

Here’s what you’ll need:

chalkboard cardstock
bakers twine
hole punch
chalk pen
stamps!

With the cardstock already ready to use, grab your stamps and chalk pen. Simply color over the stamp with the chalk pen and press onto the cardstock! You can so easily personalize these ornaments with family member names, favorite Christmas quotes, Bible verses and so much more! I had a set of alphabet letters from Target Dollar Corner and also some stamps I bought from the dollar bins at Michaels too! Hole punch the top of the cardstock to thread you twine through and hang on the tree!

These are so adorable and SO simple!

I headed to Hobby Lobby with a project in mind… I was on the search for small wooden rectangles and a chalk pen. Did you know chalk pens existed? You must go buy one!! Anyways, I found four {4} thin, wooden rectangles (about 3”x 2”) for $1.47, score! Once I was home, I sprayed the wooden rectangles with chalkboard paint, with two full coats, each side. Let dry completely. My lovely hubby drilled a small hole into the top for the twine I’d be threading through! To “activate” the chalkboard effect, rub chalk over the entire piece and wipe off. I grabbed my new love, the chalk pen and wrote some of my favorite Christmas-y quotes: Joy to the world, Merry & Bright, Peace on Earth and drew a cute snowflake! Previously, I had bought red and white bakers twine at the Target Dollar Corner for $1, so I used this for hanging the ornament on the tree!

How cute are they?! And you can personalize them to say anything you like! Great as gifts or for the kids 🙂
