For Harry Potter Fans

This set is my personal favorite because I am a huge Harry Potter fan.

Silhouettes

You can also experiment with silhouette images. After making gift sets of these wood ornaments for my friends and family, I decided to make a set for myself.

For mine I chose these beautiful bird silhouettes and used a glittery material.

How To Make Personalized Natural Wood Christmas Ornaments

The great thing about making these ornaments is that it’s super easy with a few steps.

1- Wood base

I went the low fuss route and bought these round wood pieces that already had a hole drilled in the top for easy hanging. These are the ones I used.

2- Cut the design on Heat Transfer Vinyl with a Cricut or Silhouette

3- Press it onto the wood with a heat press or iron

4- Hang it

You can use lots of different types of string or ribbon to hang your ornament depending on the style you’re going for. To give mine a more festive look I used bright colored ribbon.

But I also often use jute string. I have a couple of giant rolls of it and use it in a lot of different DIY projects.
