Words have a way of making connections, and these ornaments bring that idea to life.

Using Scrabble tiles, you can spell out the names of friends, family, or even festive words like “JOY” or “PEACE.”

Tied with ribbon and holiday embellishments, each piece becomes a story waiting to hang on a tree branch.

It’s like playing a board game with memories, only this time the score is measured in joy.

Materials Needed

• Scrabble tiles (one set covers multiple ornaments)
• Festive ribbon (1” wide, cut to 6-8” lengths)
• Hot glue gun and glue sticks
• Mini holiday embellishments (bows, bells, or greenery)
• Twine or string
• Scissors

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Cut a strip of festive ribbon long enough to fit the chosen name vertically.

Step 2: Arrange the Scrabble tiles in order, spelling out the name or word you want.

Step 3: Hot glue each tile onto the center of the ribbon, pressing gently until secure.

Step 4: Add small embellishments such as bows, bells, or holly at the top for a festive touch.

Step 5: Attach a loop of twine or string to the top of the ribbon to create a hanger.

Step 6: Let everything dry and then hang them on your tree or attach them to wrapped gifts for a personal surprise.

Note:

These ornaments are perfect for kids to help with, just supervise the hot glue.

You can also make sets for entire families, turning them into a yearly tradition.
