    Have made these since 1960's for myself and gifts but your instructions and the punch will make so easy since older now. Love these. My son expects some each year since his cats love them as toys too.

    oh I loved making these as a kid. They can be so pretty on a tree. you can roll the edges in glue and then in glitter to hide the edges. Very pretty.

    Great, simple, straightforward demo. I love that you speed up through the repetitive parts. It makes it much easier for me to stay focused.

    Aw! I had a patient years ago that taught me how to make these shortly before she died so this warmed my heart when I came across it. I'll have to make one!

    You did a nice job illustrating & explaining this ornament. Originally when I saw these made, it was a way of displaying a deceased family member’s card with their signature, as a sweet Christmas-treasured ornament. I hope this isn’t offensive or too sensitive to anyone, but just an idea? A few of the best & matching parts, including the loved one’s name with their writing ✍️, could be visible. I lost my daughter, Jan. 14, 2020 at 30 y/o, so I wanted to make at least one from her. Thank you for sharing this craft. I had forgotten how to make it.🙏🏼👼🏼🎄❤️🥰, Rhonda 💕

    I have been wanting to make this ornament for a few months but making that triangle stumped me. Thank you for showing me a simpler way of making it. 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐I have a bunch of old calendars, maps & scrap book paper I can make these with.

    I made these last year, I wish I would have seen this tutorial first this is the best tutorial I've seen on this. Great job. I love a youtube video that you get to what you are talking about right away and how you explain it and show the work at the same time. Great job and thank you!!

  • @UKMumfromthepool
    @UKMumfromthepool 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've seen these ornaments before but your method is so much easier to follow, thank you!
    I made these last year following someone else's idea and somehow they made it very complicated and time-consuming. Yours is GREAT!

    • @charmainecollings5587
      @charmainecollings5587 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is not the easiest. a hole punch, 2 1/4' at Michael's, makes creating the 20 circles, much quicker. Also, cut a triangle out of another piece of light cardstock, and use it to fold flaps up around it...no ruler required. Faster...

  • @bradleyziegelmann8359
    @bradleyziegelmann8359 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Watching you put it together gave me the idea to use it as a gift box for light weight gifts! Instead of gluing one last flap together, you could punch a small hole and tie it closed with ribbon. I will try this next Christmas.

  • @xrachxannax
    @xrachxannax 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    i had no idea where you were going with it at the beginning, but that turned out really cute! very creative!

  • @sunnyjohnson2482
    @sunnyjohnson2482 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your instructions are very good. I traced around a bottle cap with a ballpoint pen and cut them out with scissors. I cut another circle from notebook paper for the triangle, and placed it over the circles scoring the corners with my thumbnail. None of it was perfect but the finished product turned out beautifully.

    Oh wow - I think we made those in school or scouts. Lessee, that would be about 75 years ago or so. How fun to be reminded. That would be fun with the granddaughters. Thank you. We didn't bother to color coordinate them though, I like your idea much better.

  • @genmama1955
    @genmama1955 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a beautiful ornament. Now I'm sorry I got rid of all my old x-mas cards last year. I'm going to start saving them again! Merry Christmas!

  • @jcrefasi1
    @jcrefasi1 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love this!! I bought a circle cutter at a $ store that is like a compass but holds an exacto blade instead of a pencil. It's so neat. I can cut circles from 1 inch in diameter to 6 inches. Now I finally have something I can use it for
    Thanks Tammy

    I made these at my school and instead of big ones we made miniature ones and we had drawn the pictures our selves. We had to draw little christmasy themed pictures like a santa hat or reindeer antlers. We also did do small ones with christmas cards.

    Very nice video. I've seen the circle cutters at Joann's Craft stores. I've also seen quilter's templates that are premarked into 3rds. This could save a step in the process if the size is right.

  • @peterleo2060
    @peterleo2060 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank You, this is so smart & such a fantastic Christmas ornament to make! I have just one question, where may I get one of those cutters? I went to Michael's & they did not have them, if fact, the woman did not know what I was talking about.

  • @yoyomax12
    @yoyomax12  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @grovesbm Strangely your English is much better on the other videos you commented on (the activity list on a person's channel page tells a lot about them, including that you left a hateful comment about a cute little dog)
    I suggest if you want to pretend to not speak English that you shut of the activity sharing on your channel, or make it unlisted.
    This isn't a hate comment, so I will answer your question, it was purchased at Walmart.

  • @25april2009
    @25april2009 12 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @johndoe758
    @johndoe758 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love this. My father's secretary made one for him when I was a little girl and I've never forgotten it. I thought it was so clever. It looks quite easy once you get the hang of it but I have a question regarding the glue. The stick glue looks so convenient but in my experience, stick glue doesn't hold well. Is this the best/strongest/easiest type of glue to use? Thank you for posting this project!

    • @yoyomax12
      @yoyomax12  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +John Doe Any kind of glue would be fine for this if you don't want to use the glue sticks. Regular white school glue (Elmer's type) would be fine as well.

    • @vikaasvarma315
      @vikaasvarma315 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I found that those little bottles of crazy glue that can be applied with a brush is easiest

    • @charmainecollings5587
      @charmainecollings5587 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This cutter is more work than is necessary. Michael's sells a 2 1/4" punch, which makes quick work....no drawing, no scissors...just punch. Very fast. Also, the triangle can be found on the internet, Euclidean traingle, I think. Just adjust size to fit your circle, before you cut out a triangle. Quite simple...

      @charmainecollings5587 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a 2 1/4' hole punch which makes faster work of making the 20 circles required. Also, the ruler slows things down, just cut a triangle to fit (you can find a triangle on internet, and make a cardboard (thin) triangle cut-out, place in center of circle, and fold flaps up...much faster.
