How to make a Christmas tree felt ornament Impr 1. Print the tree template (you can download it HERE ) and cut out the silhouettes.

2. Place the template of the largest tree on red felt, and draw the silhouette with a marker. Put it back and draw another like it. Do the same with the small tree template on green felt.

3. Cut the silhouettes down the line, try not to get out so they fit better.

4. Stick the silhouettes of the green trees on the red felt trees, so that they are well centered. Then, stick them together: Put glue on the back of one of the red trees, only on the edge and leaving one end free (to introduce the cotton). Paste the other one over, so that both sides are equal.4.

5. Insert pieces of cotton inside the tree through the opening. Go pushing it with your finger, until it is fluffy. Place a string or ribbon on the top, close the opening with a little glue.

6. With scissors with a serrated edge, cut out the silhouette of the tree, to give it a more original touch. If you do not have it, you can do it with small scissors, giving it the shape that you like the most. You already have a nice felt ornament for the tree!
