Mitten Christmas Card Holder

Here is a cute hanger for your Christmas cards made from felt, little clothespins, and ribbon.

List of Materials:

• red and white felt
• white embroidery floss (optional)
• little clothespins (about 1 3/4 inch)
• tiny clothespins (1 inch #3)
• 1/2 inch ribbon or fine twine
• hot glue gun and glue sticks
• paper patterns in the packet

Instructions:

1. Cut patterns A and B. Pattern B is cuff only.

 
2. Trace patterns onto felt with pen and cut out.

 
3. Make as many mittens as you like. I used 6 mittens on 3 feet of twine.
4. Note: Some of the lines will remain when you cut them out, so trace on the side that will be the back. At this point if you would like to add an edge, do so in a button hole embroidery stitch.

5. Hot glue the cuff in place, tucking the ends of the thread underneath.
6. Position the little clothespins (#2) in the center and near the tip of the mitten leaving room at the cuff to clip on the tiny (#3) clothespins.

 
7. Hot glue to mitten.
8. Tie a loop at the end of the ribbon or twine, and string the tiny clothespins on the ribbon.
9. Tie a loop at the other end.

 
10. Clip mittens to ribbon.
11. Clip cards to mittens.
