Instructions

Step 1: Gather your materials

Before you begin, collect all your materials and set up a clear workspace. Having everything ready will make your DIY Christmas decoration project quick and enjoyable.

Step 2: Create your design

Arrange your wooden letter tiles to spell out a festive word, family name or special Christmas message.

Once you're happy with the layout, apply masking tape across the back of the tiles to hold them securely together. This is a great opportunity to personalise your decorations and create keepsakes that can be displayed year after year.

Step 3: Add the hanging loop

Cut a length of twine or decorative string and attach it to the back of the tiles using Bostik Super Glue Non-Drip Gel.

Allow the adhesive to set fully before handling. Your personalised Christmas ornament is now ready to hang on the tree.

Step 4: Add festive finishing touches

Complete your decoration by adding bells, ribbons, glitter, foliage or other seasonal embellishments.

Whether you prefer a traditional festive theme or a rustic natural look, there are countless ways to customise your design. Create multiple ornaments using different names and festive words for a coordinated Christmas tree display.

Let's recap!

Make one for every member of the family and create a collection of personalised Christmas tree ornaments. These handmade decorations also make thoughtful gifts and are a great way to give old game pieces a new purpose.

With just a few simple materials and a reliable adhesive, you can transform unused wooden letter tiles into beautiful DIY Christmas decorations that you'll enjoy displaying every festive season.
