Sharing is caring!

I’ve only shown a few Christmas posts this year, but can you guess my theme yet? I’ve shared this DIY Plate Charger Wreath, a Large Scale Christmas Print and now these DIY Modern Wood Christmas Ornaments! I’m definitely sticking with my love for black and white Christmas decor and will be including pops of red and lots of greenery this year.

For this fun ornament craft, I’m joining 20 other bloggers who are all sharing DIY Ornament Ideas. Keep scrolling to the botton to see them all.

Learn how to create these DIY Modern Wood Christmas Ornaments for your tree this year! These Scanvdivian inspired ornaments are a unique touch!

I always like to do things a little different. I like to keep my decor interesting and a little unexpected. I thought these ornaments bring about a little Scandinavian design that I often lean towards during the holidays. I love the black mixed with wood elements and woods beads are my favvvorite.

DIY Modern wood Christmas Ornaments using wood rounds and wood beads.

These are really fun ornaments to make and are super easy. You could definitely make them during a Christmas craft night because the paint dries super fast and there isn’t a lot of wait time needed between steps.

Make these Scandinavian inspired Christmas ornaments using craft wood rounds, black leather cording and wood beads. Such a unique Christmas ornament idea,

I was also thinking that you could turn these into key chains too! You would never lose your keys and they would look super cute!

DIY Wood Ornament Supplies

  • Wood Rounds
  • Painter’s Tape
  • Black Acrylic Paint
  • Black Leather Cording
  • Power Drill

Modern Wood Ornament Tutorial

Tape off your wood rounds using painter’s tape. Varying the lines to create unique patterns. You can even cut the tape in half to create smaller lines.

Paint over the lines using black acrylic paint and wait for it to dry.

Once the paint is dry, remove the tape and reveal your lines.

Drill the whole at the top and bottom of each round.

I then made little tassels using black leather cording,

I found that it was easiest to thread both pieces of the cording through the hole and tie in the back with a knot.

Scandinavian Inspired Ornaments

These DIY Modern Christmas Ornaments are really easy to make and add a unique touch to your Christmas decor.

Finish it off by threading a piece of cording through the top, placing a wood bead through, knot and then knot at the top to make a loop.

Hang them on your tree or on a branch. Or better yet, use them after Christmas as a key ring!

Well, I think I just added a new project to my lis Well, I think I just added a new project to my list! After many years of doing this job full time, my “office” has typically been the living room couch and the kitchen counter... but that isn’t really sustainable anymore (not a bad thing!), so my husband and I talked about turning his home office into a shared office space soon! Honestly, I don’t know why it took us so long to do this, maybe because it hasn’t really been as much of an issue until now, but I’ve got some ideas for my new office space in here! I won’t change a whole lot, but I think it’s going to be simple and perfect! Do you and your spouse share an office space?!

I finally found THE piece for above the mantel! We I finally found THE piece for above the mantel! We officially took down the TV and moved it to the wall. I was looking for either a modern artwork piece or mirror and I am in love with this one! It’s the perfect mix of simple and modern with subtle mid-century modern lines. I’m sharing more angles on the blog today with links.

Happy Friday! A few common questions that have com Happy Friday! A few common questions that have come up about the staircase gallery wall this week... 1) the wall color is called Rebel by Kilz 2) the print size is 16 x 20 and 3) I have two full blog posts dedicated to how I picked the prints and links to the frames and also another one on building out the wall. Hope that helps!

Would you believe this brick wall is just removabl Would you believe this brick wall is just removable wallpaper?! It’s simple things like this that can completely change a space. It’s great for rentals or apartments because it won’t ruin the walls when you take it down! I’ve used it in a few rooms of our home and I’m a big fan.

We use this space so much (even the kids set up courses in here), and we have plans to finish more of the garage space this year. You can view more details on the blog by searching “home gym”.

I’ve got bathrooms on my mind! Here is our kids’ shared jack-n-Jill bathroom that I did a few years back. I still love the design and so glad I went with a pop of blue in here! I’ve started the planning process for our other upstairs bathroom and went searching for tile today (see stories)! I am getting so excited for this project, I’ve been gathering tons of inspiration photos and I’ll share them this week!
