DIY Snoopy Ornament

Creating your own DIY Snoopy ornament is a fun and charming way to add a personal touch to your holiday decorations. To make one, you can start by getting a clear ornament and some white paint or markers to draw Snoopy's iconic ears and face. Take your time and enjoy the process of bringing this beloved character to life on your ornament. Feel free to get creative with adding details like his red doghouse or Woodstock, his trusty sidekick. Whether you're a Snoopy fan or just looking to add a touch of nostalgia to your tree, making a DIY Snoopy ornament is sure to bring a smile to your face every time you see it hanging proudly among your other ornaments.

To make your Snoopy ornament, you only need a few supplies  :

• a lightbulb
• white spray paint
• black craft foam (or felt would work too)
• black paint pen or craft paint
• seasonal felt or fabric for the hat
• ribbon
• scissors
• hot glue gun

First, spray paint your lightbulb white. You’d think you could skip this step, but most bulbs have writing or a brand stamp on them. Plus I like a the crisp, clean look of a coat of white paint. Especially if you’re recycling an old bulb, it’ll probably have some discoloration that will need to be covered anyway.

While it’s drying, tie and hot glue your ribbon to the neck of the bulb. This will be how your ornament hangs.

Then, cut two teardrop shapes from your black craft foam. These are Snoopy’s ears.

Next, hot glue the ears to each side of the bulb. Cut off any extra so that they fit the bulb exactly.

To make Snoopy’s stocking cap, cut a rectangle from your fabric.

Fold the bottom half up to make a cuff in the hat.

Begin by hot glueing it in place on the back of the neck of the bulb, and continue around the ornament until you reach the back again. Trim the extra fabric.

Make sure you’ve pulled your hanging ribbon through the top

Then, tie the hat in the middle, and cut little fringes on the top. Trim any extra length off.

Last, with your black paint pen, draw two little eyes, an oval shaped nose, and a smile.

And he’s finished!
