Christmas Cat Ornament

catornamentThe feline form, with its svelte predator compactness, its calm – almost wise – demeanor, as well as its general, all-over furry lovableness — is one theme that many adore for the holiday season. So it is not a surprise that you will find plenty of Christmas decorations that feature the cat.

Above and beyond that, since cats love to play with baubles, not only are there plenty of tales of cats creating havoc with the holiday decorations, but there are plenty of Christmas toys for cats, too.

In this post, I’m going to share an idea that cats and cat-lovers who appreciate unique cat Christmas ornaments are just going to love.

Hand Painted Art

Hand painted Christmas ornaments are a small way that you can have exquisite are hanging from your Christmas tree. If you’re lucky, you can find an ornament that has been created in the form of a cat. The cat’s face is painted right on the glass bulb. Two soft ears are glued on to the top of the bulb. This adorable item comes in many different styles and each kitty has a cute expression. None are identical so this cat Christmas ornament is truly one of a kind.

Make Your Own
What You Need:

  • Plain Glass Christmas Ornament
  • Glass Paint
  • Some felt in the color you want the ears
  • Glue (the kind that will adhere to glass)

Paint your cat face on the body of the ornament. Set it aside to dry.

Cut two triangles from the felt. Once the ornament is dry, glue the triangles to the top to form the ears.

Ta da! You’ve got a hand-painted cat Christmas ornament!
