How to Make Printable Christmas Ornaments to Color
What you need:
- printable template
- heavier print paper (cardstock) or regular print paper and laminator
- coloring supplies
- scissors
- hole punch
- string for hanging
You can grab the printable template at the end of this tutorial.
Step by Step
Print out the templates. Use heavier print paper/cardstock. You can also print on regular print paper, but we recommend laminating the ornaments once you are done.
Have the kids color in the ornaments. Once colored in, let the kids cut out the baubles.
Make a hole – using a single-hole punch works out best.
Tie a string through the hole and hang your ornament on the Christmas tree.

Printable Colored Christmas Baubles
While the aim is to color these ornaments, we’ve also included the pre-colored versions of all ornaments.
You can use these as an inspiration to color on your own.
Or use them as they are and just print and hang them on your Christmas tree.
They are all colored with the same colors so that they complement each other.
You can also combine these with the black and white ones, and kids who don’t like coloring can just make the pre-colored ones.
These are still fun to make.
Perfect for a light scissor skill exercise in the classroom.
