Repeat with the second copy of the printable on the other side of the wood circle. It is easier to get it cut evenly by turning the ornament over and cutting it from the back side. Trim the paper around the edges of the wood circle. Then place the glue side of the wood circle down on the back of the paper circle, making sure that the drilled hole is at the top of the picture on the other wide. Make sure you know where the top of the picture is (so you can position the wood circle with the hole at the top). Turn one of the paper Grinch circles over. Spread glue on one side of the wood circle, making sure to get the glue all the way to the edges. Print off two copies of the printable Grinch ornament patterns.ĭrill a hole in the top of the wood circle.
