GOOD DAY TO ALL OF MY BLOG READING FRIENDS! I AM EXCITED TO SHOW YOU MY CRAFT FOR TODAY! ITS ALL ABOUT CHEAP, REPURPOSING AND CUTE! LETS GET STARTED!
ALL YOU NEED IS:
ONE LIGHT BULB (NEW OR USED ) BIG OR SMALL
CRAFT PAINT ( I HAD MINE ON HAND)
MARKERS ( ONCE AGAIN, I HAD MINE ON HAND)
BLACK FELT ( I FOUND THIS NICE LITTLE PACKAGE OF DIFF COLORS AT THE DOLLAR TREE)
RIBBON ( YOU KNOW I HAD THIS ON HAND. BUT I FOUND IT AT THE DOLLAR TREE LAST YEAR AT CHRISTMAS)
GLUE GUN WITH GLUE STICKS
AND AS I AM MAKING THIS LIST OF MATERIALS YOU NEED, MY MIND IS COMING UP WITH ALOT OF DIFF THINGS YOU COULD USE. SO I AM LISTING THESE, BUT YOU CAN DO IT YOUR OWN WAY, IF YOU LIKE.
SO I PAINTED MY BULB WITH MY WHITE CRAFT PAINT, PAINTED THE SILVER PART( THE PART THAT SCREWS IN ) WITH MY BLACK CRAFT PAINT. THEN I TOOK MY MARKERS AND MADE MY SNOW MAN FACE....
GLUED ON MY RIBBON TO EACH SIDE OF THE SILVER PART(NOW PAINTED BLACK) AND ATTACHED MY BLACK FELT TO MIMIC A HAT! VOILA!! LOOKY THERE- A SNOWMAN LIGHTBULB ORNAMENT!! THIS IS REALLY CUTE AND EASY. I AM A LOT OF THINGS, I DO NOT CLAIM TO BE A ARTIST, SO IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN. THINK OF ALL OF THE OTHER CHARCTERS YOU COULD DO.. REINDEER, SANTA, THE GRINCH. PLAY AROUND WITH IT , YOU MAY SUPRISE YOURSELF. SUPER CHEAP AND GREAT GIFT IDEA , RIGHT? YOUR KIDS CAN MAKE THESE FOR TEACHERS AND FAMILY FOR GIFTS, TOTALLY AFFORDABLE AND THE BEST PART IS.. THERE ISNT A WRONG WAY TO DO THIS. BE CREATIVE! IF MONEY IS A LITTLE TIGHT, AND YOU NEED SOMETHING CUTE AND FAST FOR A PASSING PARTY GIFT.. LOOK NO FURTHER!
I AM GOING TO HAVE ANOTHER GREAT CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT IDEA COMING SOON, BE SURE TO WATCH OUT FOR IT! UNTIL THEN,STAY WARM !
