DIY: Christmas tree ornaments (part 2)

Hey Beauties!

As promised, here is my part two of the Christmas tree ornaments DIY. You can see my first part of DIY here. Finally no more classes - yeeey :). My Christmas mood is on and here is one more idea on how to make your tree ornaments. I already hung up mine on my mini Christmas tree :).



Beads ornament

I worked again with those transparent balls that can be taken apart in half. First one is very simple. I chose three different colored beads and heart pendants, which I had laying around from my DIY chandelier project.



I just filled them in one half and put both halfs together.



I also used some leftover decorative ribbon and made a knot. Then I also made a little bow and tight the end so I can hang it on the tree. As I said, very simple this one, but I think pretty chic :).




Santa Clause in the woods ornament

For this one I used a little figure of Santa Clause, which was originally a part of a little snow globe, but it broke. I still had Santa Clause in my storage and used it for this ornament. I took some evergreen plant from our backyard and glued it around him with hot glue gun.




I also added a little pine cone and some more of this plant.


Then I placed it in the half of the ball and measured where I need to put the glue. I used hot glue gun again and attached it to the first half of the ball.


Then I just added a bit of my fake snow, which I used in the first part of this DIY. I also put the snow in the other half and then I just put them together.



I added white decorative ribbon and made a bow on top. Also pretty simple, right?


That's the end of my Christmas tree ornaments DIY. Here you can also see my mini Christmas tree, which is in my room. I make it the same every year: red and gold ornaments and white lights. This year I added my DIY ornaments as well :).






DIY: Christmas tree ornaments (part 1)

Hey Beauties!

Christmas is coming up:), yey! I think I'm more excited for the holidays, because I finally have some time for me. Sometimes I have so many ideas and so little time. I hope to catch up, but I doubt. You know how it is, family comes together, you go here and there and the holidays are over.

Here is another Christmas DIY. In one of the stores I found these transparent Christmas tree ornaments and was so happy. Then I didn't know what to do with it. So many possibilities :). Here's the part one of how I decided to "pimp" those up.



Gold glitter with red bow ornament

For this one I used Mod Podge as a base. I poured it in the half of ornament and swirled it around. I got a wavy pattern and them I poured on top of that some gold glitter. I let it dry and then I just shook off any leftover glitters. At home I also had red gift ribbon and tied it into a bow. I glued it on the top of ornament. I also used some leftover gold decorative cord and used it to hang my ornament on the tree.







Snowflakes and fake snow ornament

I took one of Avon's nail polishes, which is a beautiful white silver shimmer shade. I used a striping nail brush and drew on some snowflakes, randomly. Then I had some fake snow at home so I filled my ornaments to a half. I took decorative white and silver cord to tie a bow and used it to hang the ornament.







I still didn't put up the Christmas tree, because we usually do it later in December. But when I get around to it, I will hang these on. I think they look kind of cute, what do you think?

In another post I will share my other two types of those ornaments.

Did you make any DIY Christmas tree ornaments?
