DIY Glittered Ornaments
Monday, December 2, 2013Sparkling Ornaments DIY
Monday, November 18, 2013
I'm super excited about this simple sparkling ornaments DIY! I've been playing around with Tulip's new flexible stencils lately, and it occurred to me that they might be really fun on Christmas ornaments. I collect the old Shiny Brite ornaments, and what I love best about them is the glittered accents. You can use the Tulip Body glitter and adhesive for this, it works beautifully! Add a little maribou inside and you have a sparkling, glamorous accent for your tree in a few simple steps. I had some tinsel ribbon in the studio, and it tied everything together perfectly. (Pun intended.) Here's how you can make some Sparkling Ornaments of your own.

This neon marble set definitely was a LOT of fun to make and all it took was some neon Tulip Soft Paint and clear ornaments to make them! Here's how you can make your own fun and funky set!

Wahoo! I don't know about you but I am super excited about Christmas being right around the corner. Yes, I do celebrate Thanksgiving but not in the normal way. Last night I took down all of my Christmas decorations from the attic and my goodness I was overwhelmed. But once I put my cupcake tree up everything got better.
Let's go make some Cupcake Christmas Ornaments!

ILovetoCreate: Joyful Christmas Ornament
Avalon Potter
"Teen created, Mom approved."
I thought I would squeeze in one more holiday project because it is one of my favorite seasons. A few years ago my mom took a clear glass Christmas ornament and put crystals inside making a snow globe for your tree. It was one of my favorite projects she ever made, so I thought why not adapt her old project into something new! My project is a clear ornament that you spray wit Aleene's Tacky Spray Glue and coat the inside with Crafty Chica glitter! I enjoyed making these as gifts for my little cousins because it is fun, easy, and you can personalize each ball with different colors and tag to make it special for the person you give it to.
Materials
Clear ornament with opening top (preferably plastic in case of accident)
Aleene’s Fast Grab Tacky Spray
Tulip Fashion Glitter (green and red or colors of choice)
Colored paper to match glitter
White printer paper
Paper to make funnel
Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue Stick
Ribbon to match color of ball
Tools
Printer
Hole punch
Scissors
Instructions
1. Gather your materials.
2. Open up your ornament and lightly coat the inside with the Aleene’s Fast Grab Tacky Spray.
3. Make a funnel with a piece of paper and insert the bottom into the opening of the ball.
4. Pour a sufficient amount of the color(s) of glitter you choose into the ball. Feel free to mix colors or choose different colors then I used.
5. Close the ornaments top and shake until the ball is completely coated with sparkles. Shake the excess sparkles out of the ball.
6. Using a font you like print out in large letters the word or name you want as the tag. Use a similar color as the one you used in the ball. If you used two or more colors chose one for the font and another for the colored paper behind it.
7. Cut out the word and cut out your colored sheet of paper a slightly bigger into a rectangular card for the word to sit on.
8. Use your Aleene’s tacky glue stick to glue the word to the colored paper.
9. Punch a hole in the corner of the tag.
10. String some colored ribbon that matches the ball through the hole and tie a knot.
11. Tie onto the top of the ornament in a bow to complete the ornament.
