These are really Cool when they're done but the ends are sharp be careful. Oh, and sorry about the picture it had too much paint on one side and kept on wanting to lean to the left. It's also supposed to say 2007 but part of the two fell off.

These are really Cool when they're done but the ends are sharp be careful. Oh, and sorry about the picture it had too much paint on one side and kept on wanting to lean to the left. It's also supposed to say 2007 but part of the two fell off.

Instructions

  1. Small craftornaments 1281732504

    Gather your supplies. You need one glass ornament and at least two differnent colors of paint.

  2. Small ornamentcaps 1281732743

    Take off the metal cap. IMPORTANT NOTE: The piece of ornament beneath the cap is very sharp be careful.

  3. Small acrylicpaint 1281732899

    Get at least two different colors of paint and squeeze a dab or two into the ornaments. Not too much or the ornament will pool in one side and make it heavy.

  4. Small thetwist 1281819948

    Twist Around. The paint will not mix and make an icky brown color despite what your mother tells you. It will swirl and make a pretty marble effect. Before you shake it put your finger lightly on the top. You may put a glove on first if you prefer.

  5. Small ornamentcaps 1281733411

    Put the cap back on your ornament. If it is the kind with long branches be careful not to scratch the paint when you insert it.

  6. Small spilledglitter 1281733645

    DECORATE! Now you can add whatever you want to the outside. I added the year and a little tree to mine. You can add glitter gems or even stickers. Or maybe you like the way it looks all by itself. Whatever you want.
