Here is what you will need for materials:
- Scrabble craft tiles
- hot glue gun (I like to have a paper plate to rest mine on)
- 1/2″ wide ribbon
- scissors
- ornament hangers
- embellishments (optional)
- Sparkle Mod Podge and paintbrush (optional)
How to Make Scrabble Ornaments
Please note, because of the hot glue, this is not a project I would recommend for young children. Get them involved in finding the letters, choosing the ribbon and things like that. Once assembled, kids can help by brushing the sparkle Mod Podge over the tiles.
- Arrange the tile vertically and then measure the length of ribbon needed as the “backing” and leave a little extra space on top (if desired) for embellishments.
- To make the ornament more sturdy, double the ribbon on top of itself.
- Next, place the ornament holder into the loop of the ribbon and glue to secure it.
- Now fold the ribbon back onto itself, using the glue gun to adhere it together.
- After that, add the tiles to the ribbon starting from the bottom up.
- In the space that is left at the top, add other ribbon or embellishments, if you like.
- Finally, you can brush a light coat of Sparkle Mod Podge over the tile. This makes the Scrabble ornament sparkle a little on the Christmas tree.
Simple right? They can also serve as a way to mark which stocking belongs to each family member!

The scrabble ornaments are so cute. We love playing but I’ve never though of making them into a decoration for our tree. I love how you made them into their names and them decorated them with ribbons. A great idea to do with children for their trees.
I love the Scrabble Ornaments,so cute! It inspires me to have a board game inspired Christmas tree with different board game ornaments,this would be fun to do with the kids.
Cute idea, though, just for fun, I would arrange the letters offset rather than in a straight line.
Super cute! I wish I would have thought of this when my children were little; it would have been a great project for them to help make. My now-teenagers, would give me an eye roll if I tried to make one for each of them now. Maybe this will be a grandmother project someday 🙂 Thanks!
These are so cute and original! Definitely going to have to make..
What a great Christmas craft! I have a friend who is obsessed with Scrabble. I’d love to make her one of these with her name.
As a fan of the game of Scrabble I am tickled to see an ornament that you can make using Scrabble tiles. It would look so cute hanging on the tree and you could spell out whatever you wanted! Love it!
We are making these ornaments Friday, I had no idea there was glitter mod podge. I need to browse Hobby Lobby soon!
Sparkle Mod Podge is AWESOME! You can get it in just about any craft store, or online 🙂

I read the project post. I do like all of these fun ideas. The Scrabble Ornaments are so unique and terrific.
Such a cute and unique idea
Thanks for the fun and easy ornament ideas to make with the kids this holiday season. I’ll have to pick up some extra tiles at the craft store though.
This is such a cute idea, especially for those with hard-to-find names on personalized ornaments,!
I love the idea of the scrabble ornaments. I can think of a number of sayings, including names. They would also make nice name tags on gifts.
Yes! These would be cute like JOY and PEACE 🙂
I love this idea. Having two boys with autism this is a great idea to reinforce them knowing their name as well as following directions, etc! Thanks for the chance to be blessed!
I love Scrabble, my mom and I played all the time. I think I’ll put something hanging from the bottom like a bell or a beaded tail.
This is a great craft. I love making personal gifts and pc this would be a great one.
I think this is a wonderful idea!. Plus our family used to play Scrabble all the time back in the day!
I wil lmake these for the family.
The Scrabble ornaments are a great idea! Especially for names that aren’t usually on premade personalized gifts.
What a great idea.
It looks great with the bow at the top. Great idea gluing them to a ribbon!
Great name tag idea and even a place setting marker.
Our granddaughter made us the ball ornament with paint as a gift last year, so cute!

Thank you so much for sharing!! Also for the giveaway opportunity!
Merry Christmas to everyone!
I love the scrabble ornaments. It makes it so personal
These are so cute for a project that you can start and finish pretty quickly. Using the ribbon to build your word is a lot easier than what I was thinking before I read the directions, I thought you just glued the tiles together.
We are Scrabble MANIACS in this house. It’s always been my favorite game. Personalized name ornaments would be the perfect gifts. I like the idea of doubling the ribbon to make the ornament stronger. I want these to last for years to come.
Although I no longer have kids at home, I love the pinecone ideas. They bring back a lot of memories! The DIY ornaments are very cool but I think I’d break a few! lol
The grandkids would really enjoy making these ornaments.
I have purchased multiple old Scrabble games to have lots of Scrabble tiles on hand to craft with and Christmas ornaments is on the top of the list. Thank you for another cute idea. Maybe the kids could make their own for their Christmas tree!

Nice craft. I enjoy scrabble.. been a while since I last played. Good idea for decoration.
This looks super simple! I’ve never used mod podge before. I don’t have any of that around the house, I wonder if I could use regular clear glitter glue?
The Michael’s card would be a real blessing to me. My husband was in the Hospital for 8 weeks this past summer and we have bill of about $20,00 to pay of on our 2 Veterans pensions.
These Scrabble ornaments are so cute. I also like the idea of using them a stocking markers.

Should have kmown you could get extra scrabble tiles fromAMAZON
Right? 🙂
These are really cute, I’ll have to look at yard sales for scrabble games. I love handmade ornaments.
I’d like to make the scrabble ornament for my boyfriend. He is a big Scrabble fan!
The Scrabble ornaments are super cute. My kids would love this project. Good to know that Amazon sells tiles.
I really like the personalization aspect of this, especially for the kids. I had no idea you could buy the tiles separately!
These ornaments are adorable! Such a cute idea. We actually have an extra scrabble game that I could use for this!
wow such great idea loce the scrablle tag
I have seen somewhere else this project. I wondered how it was done. Thank you for laying it out. Maybe next year or even birthday present tags.
I’m going to make these with my family at our Christmas Eve party!
This looks like a fun project to do with the kids. Already decorated but could be nice for next year.
The scrabble ornaments would be a great craft to do with my niece. She could make some Christmas gifts for the family.
Yes, I like the DIY Holiday Wreath.
I absolutely adore this! I can imagine that it would be such a fun, hands-on project for little (and not-so-little!) crafters, and that the end result would be so lovely and rewarding. I’m imagining all kinds of “uses” for the final product! They could be gifts in and of themselves, or used as “gift tags” as you alluded to (“added to gifts”). They could be attached to a backpack for an easy identifier, or displayed on a child’s bedroom door. You could even attach some ribbon, and it could be used as a bookmark (the Scrabble part would lay on the front/top of the book when closed)! …Such a great post. I propose that we make “holiday crafts” 12 months a year! 🙂
