Girlfriends deserve a little something extra...that's why I decided to make a little gift for some very special ones that I'll be seeing tomorrow....Just a little something to remember the Christmas of 2012 and perhaps brighten up their tree.
Clear Glass Ball Ornament
Something a little Dainty
I'd like to make one for each of you, but since I can't, I decided to show you how. Maybe you'd like to make some for your friends too...
- You'll need clear glass ornaments (found in most craft stores)
You can fill them with whatever you'd like, but this is what I used:
- White snow flakes
- Silver beaded garland and floral picks for the bangles (I just cut them apart)
- White feathers
- Little silver bells
- And finally, silver tinsel to tie around the top
Now, all I need to do is add a name tag to each one,
and they're ready for the giving.
