handmade ornament- little baubles

5 Orange Potatoes — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 19:36:41 +0000

We had friends over last week so we set up a table full of baubles, nature goodies, craft glue, and basic crafty supplies for the kids to come up with their own ornament designs. The little ladies’ friend, Sam, came up with the design pictured below. I love how googly eyes bring so much character to the tiny baubles. They are self-explanatory to make but I do have one important tip- use tacky glue or the eyes will fall off the little ball.

Here’s the silver bauble balanced on a button because he got a little dizzy looking at us side-ways!
