Crafting and finding eco-friendly projects to use our fabric scraps is a fun and cost-effective activity any time of the year but when it comes to the holidays, the whimsical is front and center! These woven fabric ornaments are bound to become a staple holiday tradition because they are easy, great for motor skills, customizable and the whole family can be included in the process.

Helpful Hint:  Using a liquid stabilizer like Terial Magic makes weaving a breeze.
