Bucilla Sparkle Snowflake Ornament Kit, 6 Count

These come out adorable but are very labor intensive for such a tiny final product. All you need in in this kit and the directions are very good.

These are ornaments are cuter than they appear in the picture . Easy to do! LOVE THEM

Beautiful details on these ornaments, great addition to your tree.

I love the finished product but getting there wasnt the easiest. This is the first felt stocking Ive done in decades so I was rusty. I had to rely on the instructions alone till some memory started coming back of what I did before. Thats the main problem with the kit...the instructions. They are printed on a large sheet of paper (19 x 25) on both sides, sections put where ever they fit so youll end up refolding a lot. The instructions are sparse, they dont give tips or do hand-holding, its easy to miss something or misunderstand. Kits I did previously were much more informative than this and remembering bits of earlier instructions helped here. The main omission with this kit is not telling you to baste down larger (especially) felt pieces before you applique. That will save hours/days of frustration, especially for the horns. (pinning doesnt work well with thick layers of felt) You will need to refer to the photo that comes with the stocking a lot, and at times youll need to puzzle things out. You get plenty of floss, beads, and sequins, but polyfill and a large embroidery needle arent included. (I scavenged filling from a cheap stuffed animal for this, you dont need much) The needles that are included werent very good so I used my own (Singer assortment), and you should get some needle threaders because youll be changing thread a lot. I also bought a pair of small detail scissors and strongly suggest you do too. They make ALL the difference because you usually end up having to cut out pieces on the wrong side of the line and precision cutting really matters here. Youre going to spend many hours putting this together, make it as easy for yourself as you can. This kit isnt beginner friendly, its best if you have some hand-sewing/felt stocking experience (and patience). But when you do complete it, its an impressive piece.

These ornaments are beautiful! So excited to finish them!

So cute. I have never sewed anything in my life and I was able to complete this stocking with just a little help from my mom (who as done over 10 Bucilla stockings). There arent an overwhelming about of pieces or steps to get this together. Good stocking for anyone looking to try out felt stockings.

This is a very easy set, provided you are patient and careful. You will need a sharp pair of scissors to cut out intricate snowflakes.

Looks like it will be fun to make.

You have to cut out all of the pieces and assemble them yourself. If you’re over whelmed by the sewing, don’t be. I said screw that’s and used a hot glue gun. They came out perfect.

After doing 4 Bucilla stockings which were easy and fun to do; this stocking was quite difficult
