Punchneedle Star Christmas Ornament

Star Christmas Ornaments, 2¾" in diameter, embroidery floss punch-hooked into cotton. Designed and hooked by Marinda Stewart, Round Rock, Texas, 2013.

Handmade ornaments personalize any Christmas tree. This star was designed to be fast, simple, and inexpensive to make. It’s easy to set up multiples in a large hoop and make several at a time. It would be perfect to use in an ornament exchange, as a gift tie, on a napkin ring, or as a party favor. Try changing the colors to shades of gold or blue for a different effect.
