Simple Sunday: Easy & Chic Ornaments {the kids can make!}

Dec 11, 2011

Today I want to share some quick ornaments my kids made for the craft fair last weekend. All you need is clear glass ornaments and acrylic paint.

Here’s how:

  • Remove the brass hanger from the ornament. Clean the glass ball with rubbing alcohol, squirt a bit inside the ball and swirl it around and let dry upside down so the alcohol can run out.

  • Make a drying board by sticking straight pins in a piece of cardboard or foamboard.

  • squirt two colors of paint in the ornament, place a folded paper towel over the opening and hold it there with your thumb and shake until you ornament is coated with paint on the inside.

  • Place on the board upside down to dry. This will take several days.

  • After the ornament is dry you can put the brass hanger back inside.

Happy crafting!
