Christmas Ornament Craft
Supplies:
Approx. 3-4 inch tall Ceramic Ornament - purchased at most craft stores
this time of year
1/8 inch wide decorative ribbon Sealant - matte finish works as well
Ceramic paint (Christmas colors of course!)
Paint brushes - 1 per child
Sparkly sprinkles glitter stuff (looks like snow)
Small container for paint
As required: newspaper, broom, dustpan
Instructions:
1. Debur any rough edges on your ceramic ornament and drill out holes on
top to later lace ribbon through.
2. Spray each ornament with a sealant. This prevents the leaching of
paint to areas you don't desire. Caution: spray sealant outside or
in vented area!!
3. Set up paints in small container so that each princess has access. Put
paper down cut it's gonna be a mess. Have fun painting!!!!! You may want
to mark the name or event on the back of the ornament.
4. Add sprinkles to fresh paint for the snow affect when you want (I don't
know what these things are called but they look like snow when you use them)
5. Use sealant on front and back. Again use in well vented area....choke, choke.
6. Cut approx. 8 inch. Length ribbons and put through hole and tie.
7. Have fun cleaning up...those little sprinkles get everywhere.
