Day 3: Easy Acrylic Washi Tape Ornament for Christmas

Acrylic Circle Washi Tape Ornament

Last year for my 12 Days of Ornament series I discovered these precut clear acrylic ornaments. I had a bunch leftover and wanted to find another way to use them. I should warn you, this ornament will take you all of 5-minutes to make so if you’re looking to get out of doing the dishes because you have to go “make ornaments” this isn’t the one to choose. But the flip side is that you need TWO things and these finished ornaments couldn’t be cuter.

Step 1. Go online and order these acrylic ornaments

Step 2. Remove the backing on one side of the ornament

Step 3. Cover ornament with strips of washi tape

I hadn’t realized how thin the washi tape I ordered was, so note that you can buy thicker washi tape or even washi tape with patterns. I’ve linked to all my supplies below but washi tape is available at any craft store and even big box stores like Walmart, Target, etc. Stick your washi tape on one strip at a time.

Step 4. Trim the edges

You can certainly use an exacto knife to trim the ragged washi tape edges, but honestly I was able to use scissors which was faster and easier.

Materials used for this Ornament:

• Washi tape
• Acrylic circles
