Ornament Challenge 2011: Snowball Ornaments

I love when we have snow for Christmas and where I live {Cleveland}, sometimes we get a white Christmas, and sometimes we don’t.  This is what inspired me to make snow on my own!  These snowballs can be hung on your tree, in a window, or anywhere you want to bring the outside in!

Supplies:

• 70mm Glass Ball Ornament
• Aleene’s True Snow
• Martha Stewart Glitter Set
• Diamond Dust
• Paint Brush
• Food Coloring or Paint (optional)
• Ribbon

Using a paint brush, cover the glass ornament with Aleene’s True Snow, making peaks periodically around the ornament.

While the snow is still wet, sprinkle diamond dust and/or glitter until you achieve your desired look.  Let dry completely then add ribbon or hook to hang.

For a colored Snowball Ornament, add food coloring or paint directly into the True Snow and mix well.  Follow steps above.
