How to Glue Flat Panel Christmas Decorations

Video Transcript

"I'm Karina Fraley for Expert Village and today I'm showing you how to make a Christmas tree ornaments out of fabric. So we have gone ahead and got our little ornaments just about ready. Now we are going to add some felt making to it. It is going to give it just a little nicer look, it is going to make it pop a little bit more with the red. So I just cut out a square. I sort of free hand cut it just make sure that your fabric that your ornament fits on it and there is some boarder around all of it so that looks like a good size. I'm just going to do this the easy way. I'm going to get my glue gun and just squeeze a little bit of glue along the entire perimeter. Like that. My glue stick is getting down to the bottom but I think I'm going to have enough to finish before I have to put in a new one. A little bit more on this end, push that down be careful when you are working with a glue gun. They don't call it a hot glue gun for nothing it is hot. Without failing, I always burn myself at some point or another when I'm working with it. So go ahead and help your children with the glue gun if they are going to be helping you with this project. So then I'm just going to take my fabric and I'm going to center it. I'm going to eyeball it where it looks like it is center. I'm going to run it down like that. There is it is with the backing. Now next I'm just going to pink the edges and then I'm going to show you how to attach a string so it can attach from a tree and then we would be all done with our ornament."
