Dog Treat Ornament Tutorial

Supplies:

• Dog or cat treats
• Clear plastic ornaments
• Twine/string/yarn of your choice
• Scissors
• Tape
• Pen
• Cardstock in festive colors
• Hole punch
• Large circular punch for tags (or you can cut out small tags) 

Instructions:

• Gather your supplies.

• Open the two halves of your clear plastic ornament.
• Fill both halves with the treats of your choice.

• Fit the two halves together. Make sure that the tops of the halves line up together, as that is where you will hang your ornament up.

• Place a small piece of tape on the underside of the ornament to make sure it doesn’t pop open. Set aside.

• Cut or punch out several tags from the cardstock.

• Punch holes in the tags.

• Write your “To:” and “From:” on the tag.

• Cut two pieces of twine/string/yarn that are the same size (anywhere from 6 to 10 inches. If you have extra, you can always trim the ends).
• Tie the first piece of twine together so that you create the loop of where you will hang your ornament. Snip excess if needed.

• Slip your cardstock tag onto the second piece of twine and tie it to create a bow. Snip excess if needed.
• Your ornaments are now complete! Hang them on the tree or give them as gifts!
