How To Make Personalized DIY Baseball Ornaments

It’s easy to support your team with these handmade Baseball Ornaments.  If you can sew a button, you can sew this simple baseball stitch. Let’s get crafting – batter up!

Supplies:

• White Felt
• Red Felt
• Cup (for tracing)
• Red Embroidery Thread
• White Yarn
• Red Ribbon
• Sewing Needle
• Scissors
• Foam Letter Stickers
• Markers

Step 1: First, create your baseball shape by tracing a circle on the white felt. Repeat this on red felt for the backside of the baseball. Then, cut out both circles.

Note: If you plan to personalize your baseball ornament with stickers, now is the time to think about what size circle/baseball you need in order to accommodate the amount of letters you will be using. 

Step 2: Draw “V”’s on the backside of the white felt circle where your red stitches will go.

Step 3: Next, using the “V”’s drawn on the backside to guide you, sew red stitches to the front side of the white felt circle.

Step 4: Now, sew the red felt circle to the back of your white baseball using white yarn.

Step 5: Sew an ornament loop to the top of the baseball using a needle and ribbon. Then tie the ends together to form a loop for hanging.

Step 6: Finally, use foam letter stickers to personalize the baseball with a player’s name, number or team name.

Tip: Use markers to color the white foam letter stickers with your favorite teams colors.

That’s it! Now your customized Baseball Ornament is ready to be displayed! This craft makes a great decoration!
