Hey there! Today’s the 10 on the 10th Blog Hop, this month we are sharing ornament inspiration! I want to thank Tammy Patina and Paint for hosting the $10 on the 10th blog hop each month. This month, we have 7 of us sharing ornaments under $10 or less. At the bottom of my page I will have the links to all the participant’s ornament crafts.
I am sharing a simple way to use ornaments you already have with a little help from a pair of Dollar Tree socks. You can make 4 good size ornaments from one pair of socks. This is so easy y’all I am a little embarrassed to blog about it, but I just have too!

Simple Christmas Ornament Tutorial
I picked up a couple pairs of Dollar Tree fuzzy blue socks. One pair makes 4 nice size ornaments.
I have a lot of ornaments that I will not be using this year so I am using what I have on hand, but Dollar Tree also has plenty of different size ornaments for you to choose from.
Directions as follow: Don’t blink or you might miss them! 🙂
- Take one sock and cut it in half.
- Take the sock with two ends opened, turn it inside out and sew one end close with a needle and thread. You could also hot glue it closed as well.
- You want to use ornaments with large top openings. Remove the ornament cap and put it to the side for now.
- Slip your ornament into your sock pocket with the open cap side facing up.
- Tucking the sock edges into the ornament’s opening securing it with hot glue.
- Take the cap of the ornament and flatten the prongs.
- Add the cap back on the ornaments and press the prongs snugged to the ornament.
That’s it! I can’t wait to add them to my kitchen tree! Love the texture and coloring.

Decorating our home on a budget is my thrill. I think a home can look beautiful without breaking the bank. Your home should bring the best out of you and make you feel happy. You should smile every time you enter your home. 🙂
So awesome ideas like that.I will do one next time. Thanks for sharing. I love it!!!!
God bless you and Merry Christmas!!!
Thank you Roxie! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Well, I never would have thought of this great idea ~ so fun and cute looking! Makes me want to go check out the fuzzy socks at DT. I bet there are so many colors to choose from.
They did have a couple colors in the fuzzy socks. Thanks Allyson. Love hopping with you!
Una gran idea.
Saludos
Thank you Lirtea!
These are great and they won’t break if you drop them. Love the color. Socks, never would have thought of them.
Thanks Cindy. They were fun to make and very afforable. Happy to be hopping with you!
Very clever, Terrie. The best part is the ornaments now have built-in shock absorbers. No worries about them getting knocked off the tree by a little one or a pet!
You are so right Ann! Never thought about that. Thank you for visiting, so happy to have you back hopping with us!
Terrie how cute are those ornaments? What a fun idea…I love all of the blues. I can’t wait to try one of these. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks Tammy, very easy with just a few steps…my kind of craft. 🙂 Thanks for hosting such a fun hop. Happy Wednesday my friend!
