• Homemade Dough Ornaments

  Christmas cut-out ornaments are a fun project to do with kids. By making dough out of flour, water and salt, kids can roll it out and use holiday-shaped cookie cutters to make ornaments. Before baking the ornaments, poke a hole for the thread in the top of the ornament with a straw. After the ornaments come out of the oven kids can paint them and decorate with glitter. Spraying the finished product with acrylic will guarantee that your homemade ornaments last for years to come.Kaboose: Salt Dough Christmas Ornaments

• Simple Pine Cone Ornament

  Pine cone ornaments are another fun and easy task and can be done with kids. There are a number of different ways pine cones can be decorated. You can roll the pine cone in glue and then sprinkle glitter over top, or you can buy a can of gold or silver paint and make them shine. Glue a ribbon or pipe-cleaner to the top so they can be hung from the tree. Don't forget to spray the finished ornament with acrylic to keep the glitter from chipping off and making a mess.About.com: Pine Cone Ornaments
