Step one: Punching out the circles
I love this circle punch because it saves so much work and it’s 1000% the easiest circle punch I’ve ever used. I wouldn’t want to sit and cut out circles for hours. It even has this amazing little compartment underneath to catch all the circles you’ve cut out, so they don’t go everywhere. I absolutely recommend it, because I am in love with this paper punch!

Have you decided what colors you will use for your Easy 3D Paper Christmas Ornaments? It’s so exciting to customize your Christmas! You’ll need 8 circles for each ornament.
Step two: Prepping the circles
Here you’ll fold each circle in half. This will make it easier to later glue all of the pieces together.
Step three: Get your string ready
You’ll want to cut a string to hang your ornament on. It should be about 10 inches long. You ca take this time to cut multiple strings for multiple Easy 3D Paper Christmas Ornaments. Set your string to the side.
Step four: Putting the Easy 3D Paper Christmas Ornaments together
Get your clear tacky glue ready. Grab your first circle. Lay glue down on the top half of the circle. Grab another folded circle and place it directly over your first glued circle. Press them together firmly so they’ll stick.
Keep layering glue and your half circles until you have finished gluing all 8 pieces together.
Your half circles all glued together should look like a little book. Along the edge with all of the folds, add some glue and attach your string so both ends are glued and you have a loop to hang your ornament with.
Add glue to the last open half circle and pull your ornament closed to glue both ends together.
Now you can open up your 3D paper Christmas ornament so it is round and beautiful!
