Even Santa can’t resist a good selfie!
Document your documentation with a felt camera ornament on this year’s tree.
You will need:
Template (at the end of this post)
4″ x 7″ White felt
3″ x 1.5″ scrap dark grey felt Black Pebble
2″ x 4″ Black felt scrap
4″ x .5″ felt scrap (or ribbon) for loop Poppy
Sequins in
Crystal
Silver Streak
Classic Red
Moss
Gold rush
Matching thread
Felt Glue (Optional)
Cut 2 templates A and 1 each of E & D from white felt
Cut 1 each of F, C and G from black felt
and 1 B from dark grey felt.
Add crystal colored sequins to pieces D & E either using felt glue or white thread to attach.
(Optional: add 2 sequins along one side for added detail.)
Attach the decorated D piece to the black C piece with black thread or felt glue.
Repeat with pieces E and F
Attach the felt strip to one corner of the A pieces and set aside.
Using felt glue or thread attach the Classic Red, Gold rush, and Moss down the left side of the template B.
Attach template B to the second (undecorated) white A piece.
Doing your best to avoid noticing the terrible state of my nails attach the embellished C and F pieces to the camera.
Add piece G just below the sequins.
Using an overcast stitch attach the two A pieces together.
Ta-Da!
In a Rush?
Try using felt glue to make these and cut out over half the time.
Happy Hipster Week!

This is so cool!
Don’t you mean “Instamatic”? That’s what the cameras were called when the hippies were here.
Love your felt ornaments! Just can’t figure out how to use your templates. Thanks!
All template problems should be cleared up – please let us know if you are still having issues.
