Ok – so even though JoAnna had a tutorial, y’all requested I do one. So I did one this evening, and here it is!
Supplies:
8 (or any even number) punched circles (I used mega scalloped for this ornament). If you want it to look two-sided, punch 4 of each.
scotch tape
ribbon
1. Fold each circle in half. Make sure that you have the part you want to show INSIDE the fold – does that make sense?
2. Take one of the circles and put adhesive around one half.
3. Take one of the ‘other’ circles and adhere it to the glued half. Repeat with alternating circles.
4. Repeat until you use all the circles. When you get to the last one – it should look like this…..do not glue those together yet.
5. Fold your ribbon in half and put scotch tape on the end.
6. Stick the tape into the middle of your folds.
7. Put adhesive around both halves of your ornament – and over the tape.
8. Press the two halves together and hold – especially at the ends and where the tape is. That’s it! Now you have your ornament!
Glad it was requested – you always do such a nice, clear, easy to read tutorial! Thanks so much. I’m going to pass this one on to my ladies!

Aack! I can’t believe how simple this is now that I see it all laid out. What a great tutorial. Thanks Emily! Adelle
Beautiful tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing it with us all!
YOU ROCK! How can you compare yourself to Joanns? They aren’t nearly as good. (Not that i had seen their tut) LOL!~G
These are great! Just wondering — are you using paper? Cardstock? Adhering it to something sturdy? They look sturdier than just paper!
Thanks for the instructions!
Thanks for sharing this — my two little ones would love to do this!!!
What a wonderful idea Emily.
I *will* be making one of these ornamnets. Thanks.

Hi Emily! I love your blog! I’ve been enjoying it for awile…these ornaments are so cute and seem easy to do in looking at your tutorial…thanks for sharing!
I am having a problem with the ribbon. I try to do as instructed, but it doesnt come out in the center the way the last picture is shown. Is there something I missed? Looks like the ribbon is gathered in the center of the ornament instead of taped open. thanks for any tips.
Pretty ornament. Can you tell us the name of the papers used? Love them. Thanks.
I love it! Very easy to follow. I imagine the SU scalloped circle would work too! Thanks so much!
I love these, so simple yet stunning.
I will be busy making some ornaments for Christmas have got some nice papers thank you so much tutorial great job easy to understand. Thanks again from way down under in New Zealand Lee
