How To Make Queen Elsa Ornaments
I’ve got several step-by-step photos to guide you through making this Frozen ornament, and there is also a slideshow video over on my YouTube channel that you can watch and save to your Playlists for future reference. (Don’t forget to subscribe while you are there!)
Assembling your Elsa decoration is really easy – here is how you do it!
Simply print the template onto the corresponding colored paper or card and cut the pieces out.
Alternatively, you could print onto regular paper and trace around the pieces onto the colored card, especially if you are worried that it won’t go through your printer.
Using the photos as a guide, stick the light blue of Elsa’s dress, and the darker teal part to the large light blue circle with a glue stick.
If you want to add glitter to your ornament (and I think you should!) apply white school glue in the gap between the two dress pieces and sprinkle over white glitter. Shake off excess and leave to dry.
Add a line of glue to the base edge of the crown and add silver glitter. Add green glitter to the jewel. Leave to dry.
When the glitter parts are dry, space out the ears pieces evenly and use a glue stick to attach at the top of the body/head at the back.
Attach the crown between the ears, and stick the cloak to the back of the ornament.
Just one more step which is sticking a loop of black string or ribbon to the back of the ornaments. Leave everything to dry completely before hanging on your tree!
If you want the decorations to last longer, you could run them through a laminator before attaching the hanging loop.
When cutting out after laminating the ornaments, make sure you leave a slight edge so that the laminating sheets do not come apart!
