Vintage Wooden Spool Ornament DIY | Easy Christmas Upcycle Craft
In today’s live tutorial, I’m showing you how to upcycle vintage wooden spools into meaningful Christmas ornaments using two different creative approaches.
First, we’ll create a simple, natural-style ornament using Scripture rub-on transfers — perfect if you love a neutral, farmhouse, or vintage Christmas look.
Then, I’ll walk you through a more detailed, festive version, layering in thread, bells, and mini trees to create a cozy, old-world ornament that feels extra special for gifting or decorating.
This project is beginner-friendly, budget-conscious, and a beautiful way to turn ordinary supplies into faith-filled keepsakes that celebrate the season.
Whether you’re crafting for your tree, a gift, or just for the joy of creating, I hope this tutorial inspires you to slow down and make something meaningful.
Supplies used in today’s project:
• Wooden spools
• Scripture rub-on transfers

SUPPLIES USED:
- Bible Verse Rub On Transfers
