You might be aware that I play Bunco. I have done a few posts about my Bunco nights in the past. Well this year I volunteered to host in December. The way that our group works, we invite our husbands or a date to come and play with us. That means we have 24 people instead of the regular 12. I have my hands very full with the food and other preparations.
I thought it would be fun to give each of the girls in the group a fun ornament to remember the year by.
They are simple glass ball ornaments that I picked up from Hobby Lobby. I printed out the design on transparency, cut it out, and inserted it into the ornament with some cute little dice beads. I am sharing my template if you have a bunco lover on your gift list this year. I will also give you the step-by-step instructions.
Bunco Ornaments
- Download the Template here: Bunco 2012 Ornament Template
- Print the template onto transparency paper and cut out the insert shape.
- Tightly roll the transparency into a tube and insert into the tube. It will unroll when it gets all the way inside.
- Insert 8 or more dice beads on each side of the transparency. I found the beads online at FireMountainGems.com
- Trim the excess transparency from the top of the ornament. Replace the ornament cap. I bought the ornament hanger from Hobby Lobby. I think they are so pretty.
Here is a little sneak peek of the table setting. I made the fun little utensil holders and I will be sharing the tutorial for those in the next day or two.
I’m sure any Bunco player you know would love a fun ornament like this on their tree.
Bucno was the most fun and over the top put together! Thank you for the ornament. I love it!!
Can you explain how you made the Bunco template? I’d like to make a similar template and have no idea how !
I love this idea! Could ou do a 2013 template?
I love the added touch to the ornament hook!
I love the template I would love to know how you made the template so I could change the date to 2013. We are having a bunco night on the 5 of Dec. I would love to give these to everybody. thanks
How can I changr v the year to 2014?
Hi! I was wondering if you would be able to share how you made your template. I would like to change the year to 2014. My bunco girls are going to LOVE these! Thank you! holly.whipple26@gmail.com
Love this idea! I know you posted several years ago but would love to make for my Bunco group this year. We are all teachers who meet once a month to play. I would love this to be a party favor as they leave Bunco at my house in December. Could you share the template? We do have a few men play with us (they are our subs but teachers too – and love playing with all the women, lol) so might want to change the color of the dice for them.
Thank you!
Hi Betsy!
Thanks for the comment. I would definitely share the template with you? Do you have the ability to edit SVG files?
Hi Ashley,
