PERSONALISED CHRISTMAS BAUBLE’S.
I made these for my friends for their christmas presents. It took about 4 hours all up to make (including drying time).
I originally used glitter glue (which you can see in the singular photos) which smudged a lot and ran out quickly when I was applying it. Once it dried, it all fell off because the surface was too smooth. So I purchased some glitter paint and that worked MUCH better, while still giving the effect I was looking for.
These bauble’s are literally the size of my head! They were fairly hard to find, but if you look in your general shopping store (KMART, TARGET or WALLMART-depending where you live), they should be available :)
I then just put them in a gift bag with tissue paper to protect them from cracking :)
1- Patrick with a guitar (the musician)
2- Madison with a paintbrush (the artist)
3- Lauren with a book (the scholar)
4- Bronwyn with a panda (the animal-lover)
5- Michelle with a chef’s hat (the cook)
6- Sarah with a heart (the lover)
These are my best friends, and I tried to choose symbols that would best describe them. The last photo is the finished products with the glitter paint. All smudges were fixed :)
So yeah, here’s a simple and easy christmas gift from my DIY christmas collection this year :P
I’ll post the others later :)
