Perfect for kids and adults alike, these cute teddy ornaments will spark joy and creativity as well as give any tree a natural touch. Make sure to get creative with colors and patterns too as each ornament looks unique! So let’s get started crafting our own little teddy bear ornaments!

MATERIALS:

  • To complete this handmade bear ornament tutorial, all you need is a medium sized flat wood slice piece {I found mine at Hobby Lobby} some craft paint, paint brushes, Tulip Puffy Paint, craft foam sheets, googly eyes, twine, scissors and a hot glue gun. For holiday flair, add felt Santa hat embellishments.
  • As for color choices, for a regular bear design you will want BROWN craft paint, while for a polar bear you will want WHITE craft paint.

DIRECTIONS:

  • First things first – make sure you have a good working area. I suggest placing your wood slice on a large paper plate to protect your work surface.
  • Start off by getting the glue gun hot and ready.
  • Take your craft foam sheet and cut out TWO small half circle shapes for the bear’s ears.
  • Hot glue those two pieces to the back of the wood shape.
  • Next up – squirt your choice of colored craft paint {brown or white} on another paper plate.
  • Using your paint brush, paint the entire front side of the wood slice, until it’s completely covered.
  • Follow that up by drawing on a face with puffy paint.
  • Finally – hot glue the wiggle eyes so your little bear can see.
  • And that’s it! At this point in time you can also hot glue the Santa hat in place.
  • You will then set it aside to let it dry completely before you hot glue some twine or a piece ribbon to the back for easy hanging.
  • Then hang it on the tree for everyone to admire!  It’s easy peasy – just how we LOVE it on Glued To My Crafts!

Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
