10 Craft Ideas to do With Christmas Ornament Coloring Pages
Once those finished coloring pages start piling up, don't let them sit in a drawer—these easy, budget-friendly crafts are the perfect way to transform your colorful paper ornaments into holiday keepsakes.
1. 3D Accordion Baubles
Cut out three or four identical colored ornament pages and fold each one vertically down the middle. Glue the folded halves back-to-back using a glue stick to form a three-dimensional, multi-sided spherical shape. Before sealing the last side, slide a loop of festive ribbon down the center crease to hang your 3D creation on the tree.
2. Paper Towel Roll Tree Topper
Mount your favorite finished ornament coloring page onto thick corrugated cardboard and cut around the edges. Paint an empty paper towel tube green or gold, then make two parallel slits at the top of the tube. Slide your sturdy paper ornament into the slits to create a custom, lightweight tree topper that slips easily over the highest branch.
3. Festive Holiday Headbands
Measure a strip of green construction paper to fit around your child’s head, stapling the ends together to form a crown. Help them cut out three or four of their brightly colored paper ornaments and glue them along the front of the band. Your kids can wear their vibrant ornament crowns during Christmas dinner or holiday school plays.
4. Translucent Window Clings
Carefully cut out your colored ornament coloring page, then lightly rub a cotton ball dipped in baby oil over the back of the paper to make it translucent. Once dry, press the ornament against a sunny windowpane using double-sided tape. The sunlight will filter through the paper, making the colors glow like real stained glass.
5. Ice-Pop Puppets
Glue your cut-out ornament designs onto sturdy poster board and trim away the excess edges. Attach a wooden popsicle stick or a colorful pipe cleaner to the back of each ornament with hot glue or heavy-duty tape. Kids can use these whimsical wand-like puppets to perform their own imaginative holiday puppet shows.
6. Giant Classroom Garland
This group activity is perfect for turning a whole classroom's worth of colored ornaments into one massive holiday display. Punch a hole at the top of each student's finished, cut-out ornament. Thread a long piece of red yarn or tinsel through the holes, spacing them out evenly to hang across a wall or chalkboard.
7. Festive Memory Match Game
Print and color two identical copies of several different ornament pages, then cut them into uniform squares. Glue the squares onto matching pieces of heavy cardstock to hide any bleeding ink from the back of the page. Lay them face down on the table for a custom, holiday-themed memory matching game for the whole family.
8. Personalized Gift Tags
Cut out mini versions of your colored ornaments and glue them to the front of folded pieces of brown kraft paper. Punch a hole in the corner of the kraft paper, write a sweet “To and From” message inside, and tie it to a gift box with red-and-white baker's twine. It adds a lovely, hand-colored personal touch to any Christmas present.
9. Shadow Box Diorama
Find a shallow cardboard jewelry box lid and paint the inside navy blue, adding tiny white paint dots for snow. Cut out your colored paper ornament and glue a small accordion-folded strip of paper to the back, then glue that strip to the center of the box. This creates a beautiful, dimensional 3D shadow box where the ornament seems to float inside the snowy scene.
10. Cinnamon-Scented Felt Hangers
Cut out two identical colored paper ornaments, then cut a matching piece of crafting felt to sandwich between them. Add a few drops of cinnamon or pine essential oil to the felt before gluing the paper ornaments to both sides. Punch a hole at the top, add a string, and hang it on your tree for a decoration that looks and smells like Christmas.
