DIY Large Hoop Christmas Ornaments

Take the three hoops and nest them into each other to form a spherical shape. Think of it like a globe — three rings crossing at different angles.

To keep everything evenly spaced, add three zip ties at the top and three at the bottom, one between each pair of hoops. This keeps the structure stable and helps you avoid lopsided ornaments later.

Pull the zip ties tight. You can trim the ends later once the yarn covers everything.

Tie your yarn onto one hoop and start wrapping. The key here is: slow and steady, and keep your wraps close together.

Chenille yarn hides everything beautifully, including those trimmed zip ties. When you reach one of the hoop intersections, wrap a few extra times around the joint to cover it completely.

One full hoop segment completely wrapped in yarn while the rest of the frame is still uncovered.

Keep going until all three hoops are fluffy, soft, and fully covered.

The full spherical frame completed, with all three hoops wrapped in soft white chenille yarn.

Choose your “front” side and gather your winter greens — pine, eucalyptus, berries, pinecones, whatever fits your holiday theme.

I added mine by tying the stems directly with the same chenille yarn, which blends so well that you don’t even see it. If you need extra hold, feel free to add a tiny dab of hot glue under the wraps.

Play around with the arrangement until you like how full it looks.

Make a pretty ribbon bow (or use a ready-made one).

Attach it right in the center of the greenery cluster. It instantly brings everything together and adds that soft holiday charm.

Take your small ornament and tie it to the top inside of the hoop using the yarn.

Make sure it hangs right in the middle — this gives the whole ornament such a magical, floating look.

Straighten the hoops, lift little branches, tuck things where they look best, and fluff the yarn-wrapped structure.

Once it looks cute, you’re done!
