Here's a unique activity for kids and adults alike this holiday season.

Rebuild into 3 different silhouettes ★ ✿ Fun for ages 6 to 99!

** Your ornament will be engraved with the current year! (some sample photos are from previous years.) **

This ornament is quick and easy to put together, yet so satisfying to create! The recycled cardboard makes your final ornament a colourful conversation starter. Once you've figured it out, you can take the shapes apart and re-stack them in at least three distinct silhouettes!

Each kit makes one ornament. You'll receive 8 cereal-box cards perforated with shapes to punch out, two plywood sticks, a plywood lock ring, ribbon, yarn and a threading tool. Written instructions as well as a link to video instructions are included in this kit.

Each kit (Flower or Star) comes with instructions for stacking the shapes three different ways to get one of three unique silhouettes! Take it apart and try a new way, mix and match the instructions between kits, or make up your own pattern :)

Our design process this time was extra special thanks to our local testers, who gave us great feedback which helped us with some final design tweaks. Here's some of what they had to say:

💌 "My child loved that they could see the progress of the ornament taking shape. They also loved the math that went into it."

💌 Love it! Cute and fun, and good conversation starter about recycling and making stuff at home!

💌 Putting the stars on in order was so satisfying.

💌 "This is beautiful! I love that we could take it apart and do it differently"

💌 "LOVE this as an activity that becomes a special piece to pull out at holidays!"

💌 It was really fun to put together and looks great. As a bonus, the final product spins like a top!

Lovely AND Fun

I put together the Christmas tree or the spiral formation. It was so much fun to do. And it looks so pretty now that it is done.

excited to mend!!!

I was gifted a Swift darning loom and am so excited to use it (once we get home, where my hokey socks are waiting!). I also gave a trio of DIY recycled ornaments kits out to family this year, and we were so impressed by the beautiful results -- cereal boxes into art!

Living Lighter

There's nothing like buying a product that you know is light on the environment. I appreciate the design, attention to detail, and whimsy in everything that Worth Mending creates. Keep the amazing things coming!

Unique, environmentally friendly products.

I love the products you guys make! I like the fact that you are up cycling by reusing items that would end up in the landfill and they look amazing. I love that your looms help people mend their clothes rather than buying new ones all the time.
Your cereal box ornaments unique and fun! It is great that a family can assemble them as a team and then hang it on their tree with the year it was put together. And it can be disassembled and reassembled in other designs as well! Your products are original and great for personal shopping and gifts!👏😁 Melinda

Fantastic

Such a smart idea and lots of fun to put together. I love that it can be taken apart and done again in different arrangements. And it looks great on the tree!

DIY Ornament Kits were a hit!!

These were incredible for the kids and very well made and beautifully packaged. Looking forward to collecting a stack of cereal boxes to donate for this years!!!

What is the recomMENDed age for putting the ornament together? Thanks.

Worth Mending

Hey Lori, our testers were age 6 and up and had a great time! As long as participants can pick the pieces up and count to 90, or do either with help, it should be a fun little activity :)
