How To Make Christmas Glitter Ball Ornaments | Posh Pooch Designs

#6 in Our " How to Have a Very

 Yarnie Christmas" Series.

These are so much fun to make and

 I had a blast making them.

Here is What You will need:

Glass Balls

Spray Glitter

Pom poms

Glitter

Ornament Hangers

I Purchased all these things at Hobby Lobby.

I chose the small balls, as my tree is small.

 But any size will work.

They also have plastic clear balls,

 if you want to do this with your kids.

Ok - Lets get started:

Step 1 - Turn all the balls upside 

down in the tray they came in.

Take the tray and the glitter spray 

OUTSIDE or in a well ventilated area.

Shake the Glitter Spray a lot 

to make sure the glitter comes out even.

Spray the glass balls.

Let them dry for about 1 hour.

You will probably glitter your hands, 

like I did.

Nail polish remover will take it right off.

 But, I left mine on, Because I liked it.

Step 2 - Once the Glitter Spray is dry,

Pull the top off the glass ball.

Then put in the ball a few pom poms 

and some of the glitter.

The amount is up to you.

Again you will probably get 

glitter every where like I did.

Here are the first ones I made.

 I Love them.

HINT: The best way to clean up 

Glitter is of course to put as much as

 possible back in the bag or container.

But to get all those left over pieces, 

wipe the surface with a damp sponge.

then tap off in the trash.

Glitter is made of metal flakes 

and those flakes get static cling

and stick to each other, 

the dampness of the sponge 

cuts that static cling.

Step 3 : Now they are ready to 

hang on the hangers, 

and put on your tree.

I had a few extra Glitter Balls, 

so I added them to my table center piece.

I made the Big Glitter Balls last year.

Bon Bon Christmas Tree Ornaments | Posh Pooch Designs

#5 - How To Have a

Very Yarnie Christmas!

I purchased some of the Bon Bon yarn

 from Hobby Lobby last year.

It was so fun to work with it. 

Those cute little skeins of yarn.

I got the idea to make yarn ball ornaments

for the Christmas tree for our series,

"How to have a Very Yarnie Christmas".

  I then, realized the Bon Bon yarns are 

the perfect size for tree ornaments.

So, if you have Bon Bon yarns and 

ornament hangers 

you can make these adorable

Bon Bon Christmas Tree ornaments.

Just slide the ornament hanger

 through the top of the Bon Bon skein.

I did put a piece of clear tape across

 the back to make sure the wrapper

 did not come off.

Most Stores have put them on clearance.

But Lion Brand.com still has them.

And you can find them on line.

Then I hung them all over my tree.

 This is 2 packages of Bon Bons.

I have another package, but

 I am going to wait to see 

if they are needed, 

after the other ornaments are on.

I love them so much and 

think they look so cute on my 

Yarnie Christmas Tree.

Rosie photo bombed the picture.

She thinks any time the camera is out, 

She is supposed to model.

This is the perfect shawl to wear when the weather turns chilly.

 It is elegant and warm.

Wear it over a Fancy dress or with jeans and Sweater.

I called this design The Blessings Ombre Shawl

 because I am wearing this one

 for our Thanksgiving get together.
A time of sharing thankfulnes sand blessings.

The yarn I used is called

 Caron Simply Soft - Gold Ombre

I love the flow of the shades of Gold and Orange.

It reminds me of a goldfish with the reflection from the water
 shimmering on it. It is bright and Fallish.

I put the skill for this pattern at "Easy",

 because it is basically rows of repeat with increases.

And I think you will find it stitches up pretty fast.
