I wanted to do something different this year for our Christmas tree, so I decide to make some of my own ornaments. Since I now have a toddler I thought it would be fun to do an alphabet themed Christmas tree.

This was super easy to make. It does require some time to let the paint dry.

Here are the supplies you will need

• Wooden Letters (I used 2 sets of the entire alphabet that are 2 inches tall)*
• Spray paint color of your choice I used white and silver
• Glue gun
• Glue stick
• Twine color of your choice, I used a natural color

* My tree is a slim pencil tree so 2 sets was enough if you have a full size tree then you might need to use 4 sets.

Step 1

Place all the wood alphabet letters on a flat surface and spray paint, and let dry according to spray paint instructions.

I did have to spray two coats for the white one, but I think this depend on the type and brand of spray paint you use.

I painted one set (26 letters) white and one set (26 letters) silver.

The great thing about this alphabet set is that it comes with 4 sets of the entire alphabet (that’s 104 letters!) and its only $11.99

Step 2

Cut twine into 6 inch length pieces (amount depends on how many letters you are using)

you can go longer or shorter with this depending on your preference.

Step 3

Glue the twine to the back of each letter and let dry for an hour or so and thats it!

I did think about drilling a hole to each letter and threading the twine thru it instead of gluing it but I felt like that would take way too much time.

You can do this with any other shapes or even numbers too!

BONUS

If you have a toddler you can use them as a fun learning tool while putting the tree up and also after Christmas!
