Harry Potter Christmas Ornaments

Harry Potter Christmas House Ornaments are really easy to make.  Any time I can make ornaments for a themed tree, I get excited.  When you make your own ornaments, not only do you get to customize your Christmas tree or wreath, you get the sense of accomplishment of making something.

I like easy ornaments as a general rule but the detailed ones only add more dimension to your tree.  I made Harry Potter ornaments for my twins tree this year.  When I researched buying Harry Potter ornaments, they were too expensive, so I decided to get my creative juices flowing and make them myself.

I made several kinds of ornaments and if you are interested in how I made them, click here on my DIY page:  https://majorgates.com/diy/

Then check out your local dollar store and craft store and see what you can find affordable.

NOTE:  Any images that you find on the internet are for personal use only.  If you wish to sell these ornaments or sell items with the images found on the internet, you must contact the image owner and get permission to use.  I only have images on Major Gates for personal use only.

  • Print images on white card stock.  I printed 15 per page, 5 rows x 3 columns.

Harry Potter House Images

 

  • Hand cut out the images with sharp scissors.
  • Paint two coats of paint on the wood oval allowing it to dry in between coats, around 30 minutes.  So paint the back and sides of the wood oval and allow to dry.

Painting the ornament

 

  • Do a dry fit of the image to the wood oval, then apply the image by painting Mod Podge on the back of the image.  Then carefully affix the image to the painted wood oval.
