Vintage Christmas Craft: Pine Cone and Felt Victorian Carolers

Full tutorial, supply list, and free template: I adapted this project from an adorable vintage craft booklet called “Christmas Ideas“ by Toni Wood, 1971. I think the original concept was meant for these to be miniature sized- small enough to hang on a Christmas tree. I used full size 3-4 inch pine cones, so my carolers are actually more like dolls than ornaments, and they large enough to line up on a mantel or to use in a centerpiece. I designed templates for the costumes, and you can find them here on the project page at . These ladies look a bit fancy, but they are actually very easy to make!
