Hand Painted Ornaments
I know it’s nowhere even close to Christmas, but it’s never too early to be thinking of fun crafts to make for people. I absolutely love Christmas, and I love ornaments, so what better gift than hand painted glass ornaments for friends?
Here are just a few of my creations I’ve made so far. I started out by practicing making my own.
This was the first ornament I made, for our first Christmas as Mr & Mrs. I’m sad that the paint kind of chipped off after I was done.
You have to be really careful that the acrylic has dried before adding the sealant. I prefer modge podge now, but before I had used a glass acrylic sealant that smudged.
Here’s a Cinderella & Prince Charming ornament I made for A after she married her Prince Charming.
I don’t love how the lettering turned out. I think next time I’ll use a thin pen, instead of trying to paint the lettering.
Here’s one of my favorites: the pregnancy ornament I made when I was pregnant with little man. It was also how I announced his gender, by painting the egg blue. Funny story, I accidentally posted this picture before we made the gender announcement, and my friend C saw it, and called me out! Whoops!
I could see making an ornament like this as a fun way of announcing a new pregnancy as well.
I’m looking forward to making new ornaments this fall, and coming up with fun personal gifts for my loved ones. Do you make craft gifts for friends? Isn’t it fun?
