Santa Hat Place Cards for Christmas
- Tracing paper or a copier; pencil
- Square of stiff red glitter felt
- Scrap of white fluffy, furry fabric
- Fabrics glue
- Hand-sewing needle; red sewing thread
- Straight pins; scissors
- 20-mm gold jingle bell
- Trace the pattern using tracing paper or a copier. Place the pattern on the red glitter felt, and cut out one shape for each holder.
- Cut 1-1/2x8-inch piece of white fabric. Fold long edges under 1/4 inch, and glue the to the back side of the fabric to make a strip 1x8 inches.
- Glue white trim in place on the front lower curved edge of the red felt. Match straight edges of the red felt; form into a cone.
- Pin the straight edges together and stitch with a tight whipstitch using matching red thread.
- Sew a large jingle bell firmly to the top point, using matching red thread. Slide a place card through the top bell slit.
I'm thinking of making these with red construction paper, red glitter paint,cotton balls at the bottom and glue on the bell at the top. Cute!
