A Boyish Christmas Ornament
This craft was done at the same time as the Girly Christmas Ornaments, if you need any clarification that blog has more details. Here it is: http://malloryannramsey.blogspot.com/2012/11/girly-christmas-ornaments.html
1. Take you clear club
2. Paint the area you're going to design with 3 coats of white.
3. If you want to add bling, I used these rhinestones. Your boys may think they don't need it, but think of how it will sparkle on the tree! :)
4. Paint on your letter, capitol or lower case. You can do it with a pencil if that makes you feel more comforabtle.
5. Add your design. I used a thin brush with a small amount of paint to make these little dashes.
6. Criss Cross Applesauce, take your time and dont worry about the little mistakes.
7. I used the end of my paint brush dipped into black to make these tiny little dots.
8. Line the edge of your white with black to make it look neat and finished.
9. Glue on the rhinestone. I think it looks nice on the letter. See below's picture...
10. Add ribbon to give it a little more flair. You will need one longer loop to hang it onto the tree.
Merry early Christmas to my sweet little Nephew, this ornament is for you Boe!
Wow, these are pretty cool. I'll have to see about making some Colorado Christmas ornaments with a similar style to these ones. Thank yo so much for sharing!
