By know ya’ll probably know that I LOVE Christmas and that I LOVE hoop art… so when I find a box of 3 inch mini hoops that I completely forgot about, its time to combine 2 of my favorite things! These Mini Hoop Ornaments are super easy to make and totally adorable!
To make your own mini hoop ornaments you’ll need…
3 inch Mini Hoops
Christmas Fabric
Hot Glue and Glue Gun
Ribbon or Twine
I will warn you now… these mini hoop ornaments are so easy to make, you’ll find yourself unable to to stop! As you can see, I made a bunch… they’re a little bit addicting 😀
Start by cutting some 1 inch fabric strips. I choose more neutral, simple patterns and colors for the wrapping fabric.
Remove the inner wring from the hoop. At the top of you hoop, place a drop of hot glue on the underside of the clasp. Quickly secure one of the ends of your fabric strip. Allow it to harden for a few seconds. Then tightly wrap the fabric all the way around the outer hoop.
Secure the end of the fabric to the hoop with a another drop of fabric on the underside of the clasp.
Trim the access fabric.
Cut a piece of fabric for the center of your mini hoop ornament it needs to me at least 5 inches square. Charm packs of pre-cut fabric are perfect for these!
Lay your inner hoop on a flat surface. Place your fabric on top and center it over the inner hoop.
Open your top hoop clasp as wide as you can.
Carefully push your fabric wrapped outer hoop over the fabric and inner hoop. It will take a little bit of even placed pressure to get it all the way flat.
Gently tug on the inner fabric to smooth it out.
To secure the inner fabric, add a thin line of hot glue on the inside of the inner hoop. Carefully fold the fabric over and hold in place for a second or two. Continue to glue and fold all the way around. Carefully trim any access fabric.
Loop a length of ribbon through the hoop clasp and knot.
I told you these mini hoop ornaments were easy! Honestly the hardest part for me was deciding which fabric to use… and then which one was my favorite!!

I love how simple and classic these are! And I know they’re meant for a tree, but I love how they look on a wall like you’ve displayed them in the post. They’d be a great addition to a photo wall during the holidays.

Awh, I love these all clustered together like that, they look great. I think I have some cheap plastic hoops left over from a kids embroidery kit, this wrapping them in fabric idea might be perfect to give them a makeover. thanks.
