What Paper Can I use for Paper Ornaments?

The best answer, any paper you like! The key is the glue but we will get to that in a minute!

You can use cardstock, scrapbooking paper, double sided patterned paper, construction paper or printer paper for that matter!

The key is to not use a liquid glue but a tape runner if using a lighter weight paper! I prefer the tape runner over liquid glue with all the paper selections above. It will keep it from wrinkling and keeps a tight hold.

Make a fun 3D Paper Ornament in minutes with this free ornament svg and your favorite cutting machine! You can also cut these by hand as well!

Cut the Ornament Pieces
Either by hand or by using your cutting machine, cut 8 ornament pieces and 1 ornament cap strip.

If using a cutting machine, the file will prompt a score line down the center. If cutting by hand, fold the ornaments in half vertically with the ornament cap at the top.
Adhere together.
Using a tape runner, add adhesive to one side of the ornament and glue to a second half of an ornament. Continue until you have 8 folded ornaments stacked.
Add Hanger
Cut a strip of twine or string and hot glue it in the center of the ornament.
Complete the Ornament Bulb.
Glue the 1st ornament half to the last (8th) ornament half creating a sphere.
Glue ornament Cap
Wrap the Ornament Cap strip around the square top and adhere with tape runner.
Hang and enjoy!
