4) Using embroidery floss as it comes (6 strands together) and an
embroidery needle, join the four felt sides and the bottom using a whip
stitch (overcast stitch). You should now have a felt box that is
open on top. For instructions on the overcast stitch click
here.
5) Place the plastic canvas square into the felt box.
6) Attach your last felt square to the felt box in the same way you
attached the other felt squares (whipstitch with embroidery floss).
The plastic canvas square should be inside the felt cube before
attaching the last side.
7) Wrap the gold ribbon around the felt cube as you would with a gift
then tie the ribbon in a bow.
8) Thread a 6" piece of embroidery thread through one of the corners*
of the cube an knot the ends. This is your hanger.
*You should use one of the corners near the bow so that the bow side
of the ornament shows when it's hung on the tree.
By Simply changing the size of your squares,
you can make different size presents!
