One of my favorite places to buy Christmas decorations is Pottery Barn. I have no less than 6 large Christmas trees in my house (yes, they are all themed and yes, I am totally ridiculous), so I am constantly on the hunt for new decorations. Last year while shopping I saw the German Glitter Letter Ornaments and I immediately thought of making one for my youngest daughter! She has a white tree in her room with lots of pink and pastel ornaments so I wanted to make one to match. Glitter week was the perfect excuse to make this quick and easy ornament!

This DIY Glitter Ornament is SO easy to make. I will make them for all my children in their initials and colors to match their Christmas trees.

Here are the supplies you’ll need to make these easy glitter ornaments. I used my Cricut machine to make my letter – but you could definitely just cut it by hand.

Use a die cutter to make this craft REALLY easy. Just find a block letter font – I used Chip Decor in Cricut Design Space – and cut out two small circles for where the twine or ribbon will go. I sized my letter to about 4.5″ tall.

I cut the ornament out of Kraft board – it’s thick enough to be stable but thin enough my Cricut Explore Air 2 cut it easily with the fine point blade. If you are cutting by hand, I suggest using a thin cardboard.

Once you’ve cut your ornament, next comes the easy part – Glitter! All you have to do is paint your letter with Mod Podge and sprinkle with glitter.

I added the Mod Podge and glitter in small batches so the glue didn’t dry before I could apply the glitter. It only takes a minute or two to create the entire letter.

I decided to go back and add another layer of glitter on top of the first. I used a heavy coat of Mod Podge to add extra glitter coverage – and it dries clear so you’ll never see it!

Once dry, add twine or ribbon through the holes and you’re done! With no drying time, this quick craft project takes less than 10 minutes!

A whole lot of glitter comes out combined with a little drying time, and the results are also cute decorations for your home, Christmas tree, packages and gift giving!

How to seal with Mod Podge! Sealing glitter with Mod Podge prevents it from falling off the project and getting all over your home, office or Christmas tree, and it’s easy! One of the easiest to use and most affordable mediums for sealing glitter is a decoupage medium. It already has a sealer built in to help make projects last longer.

Letters are a smart and relatively inexpensive way to personalize a workplace, kitchen, children’s room, wedding, holiday event or even wreath.

Letters can be grouped together to create a thought or left alone, dressing up any event or room.

How I Became a Fan of Glitter Letters and Christmas Ornaments When my daughter started having their babies I was just so excited, I mean freaking excited! It was so much fun buying darling baby kits or handcrafting special items they requested. So when two of them asked me to make some DIY Glitter Letters for their own daughters, this crafty grandma said of course! Before I knew it, I was making a series of custom crafts!

I added cute little ornaments and ribbons to make them even more special and meaningful for Christmas time.

So one thing led to another and before I knew it I was slightly obsessed and thoroughly enjoying the whole process of making custom glitter letters and Christmas decorations for just about everyone, including the pups!

I enjoy working with wood and the stability it brings to all DIY projects. Working with wood also has endless possibilities that go beyond lettering and ornamentation.
