Another Ornament

IMG_0080.JPGThis is a real simple ornament to make.

Take a clear glass ornament and fill it 1/3 to 1/2 full of some white styrofoam pebbles.  I found the styrofoam pebbles for $1.99 at HL. 

Unfortunately, I had to do these a little at a time.  I couldn’t get them to slide down a funnel because of static electricity.

The first thing I tried was using a Star Dazzle (you can find these @ paperwishes.com)  for an outline and then covered it with etch-a-glass.

However, I didn’t put enough etching cream on it and it didn’t etch the ornament.  It also ruined the Dazzle, bummer.  When I took the etching cream off it had done a little etching but you need to put a lot of etching cream on it so it doesn’t dry out.

So simple, so sweet and it looks great on the tree.
