Moana Christmas Ornament

I have watched the movie Moana so many times now that I’ve lost count! There is something just so beautiful about the Polynesian culture that I just adore, and this film represents it so well. If, like me, you long to visit one of the Polynesian islands, why not make this Moana ornament?

Don’t forget to also make the Maui Christmas Ornament to accompany Moana on your Christmas tree!

Moana Christmas Ornament Craft Tips

  • Print the template onto the suggested colored construction paper and cut the pieces out. (But you could use any colors you want!)
  • If construction paper won’t go through your printer, you could print onto regular paper and trace around the pieces onto the colored paper/card. You will have to add any detail with a black marker pen.
  • Another option is to print onto white paper and color the pieces in with crayons, pens, paints, or pencils.
  • Or what about making Moana using craft foam? You will have to add any detail with a black marker pen.
  • Cut all the pieces out and lay them where they should go before sticking down with glue.
  • An optional extra is adding glitter: apply white school glue to the parts you want to add some sparkle, sprinkle glitter on top, shake off the excess and leave to dry. We’ve suggested parts of the ornament to add glitter to, but you can add it wherever you like!
  • Stick a loop of string (red and white baker’s twine is very festive looking!) or ribbon to the back of the ornaments. Cover the fixings with a circle of matching color paper to hide them. 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!

  4. If you are adding glitter, apply white school glue carefully to the ears and cover them with black glitter. Shake off excess and leave to dry. Then repeat with red glitter on the stripe across the top.
  5. Finally, form a hanging loop with a piece of string or ribbon and stick it to the back of the ornament. To hide your workings at the back you could add another large circle of matching paper to cover.
  6. If you want, you can laminate the ornament so that it lasts longer. Before attaching the loop, run it through a laminator and cut away the excess. Ensure you leave a slight edge as you cut it out so that the laminating sheets don't fall away! Attach the loop to the back.
