DIY Mickey & Minnie Ornaments

© Monique Garcia


Are you rushing around looking for last minute Christmas presents for friends and family?
Look no further for a special Disney inspired, inexpensive and thoughtful gift you can create yourself.


Here at Picturing Disney we love to keep the Disney magic alive at home! What better way to celebrate the holidays than with Mickey Christmas Ornaments? 

Supplies:

  • Round plastic ornaments: any size as long as there are two smaller (for ears) and one larger ornament (for head)
  • A glue gun and glue sticks
  • Scissors
  • Ribbon
  • Ornament hooks
  • Shot glasses or tiny tea cups. (either one will serve as a place to set your ornaments while building and allowing the glue to set without a huge mess).

Directions:

  • Take the smallest of the plastic ornaments and carefully remove the silver clasp. 
  • Grab your scissors and cut the at the base of the ornament. Try to cut gently over a trash can so that you have less mess and keep most of your ornament intact. This will allow for the smaller ornaments to sit flat (as best as possible) on the larger ornament.  
  • Generously glue the smaller ornament. (a thin layer of glue will not hold.) 
  • Place the small ornament on the larger ornament and let it set for 2-5 minutes. 
  • Once the ornament is set, repeat on the other side. 
VoilĂ ! You have made an adorable Mickey Mouse Silhouette Ornament.


For an added touch of magic, take half of the ornaments and place bows on the top to make Minnie Mouse!
