New Year's pendant - felt orange

On New Year's Eve, we think about what to give to our loved ones, colleagues, how to decorate our home, or what themed craft to make with our child. A pendant in the shape of an orange slice will be the best option for all these cases, because it can easily become a modest souvenir, craft or decorative element that sets the appropriate tone. And the most important thing is that it was made with your own hands, which means with kindness and from the heart!

To make it, take:

• Felt is orange and white.
  
• Floss threads of the same colors.
  
• Scissors.
  
• A small piece of satin ribbon (15 cm).

Manufacturing:
Cut out three circles from felt - 1 large and 1 small orange and 1 medium white. For this purpose, you can use containers with different diameters, for example, a mug, a glass and a glass - outline the top part and that’s it.


Cut the smallest orange circle into 6 approximately equal parts, which must be sewn to a medium-sized white circle. Place the white piece with the orange pieces sewn onto the large circle.


Sew the white circle to the large orange one with white thread using a loop stitch.
The result should look like an orange slice - a large orange circle, a white middle circle on top, and a cut small circle on the middle.
Using orange thread, sew a large circle around the perimeter with small stitches and pull it together slightly.


Sew a piece of ribbon in the form of a loop to one edge of the pendant. Fasten the thread.

That's all, the pendant is ready, you can decorate the tree with it, or pack it in transparent packaging and present it to a loved one. By the way, you can make such a pendant with your child, but only if he has sewing skills and is warned about safety rules. Happy New Year and good luck to you!
