Ornament Factory

December 8, 2011 By crafterhours 7 Comments

Yesterday morning was spent making piles of these with the help of a super fun crafty mom friend. This time around, instead of photos, there’s a school graphic, the name of the school and the year on one side, and it’s blank on the other.

Since I had about 50 to make and didn’t want to be bothered with hanging them to dry, I laid out freezer paper, shiny side up to do the podging and let them dry. The podge doesn’t stick to the shiny plastic side. And I have 150 yards of the stuff. I will neeeeever run out. (The least expensive place to buy it is probably your local grocery store, but you can also get it here.)

Now they’re all ready to tie onto shatterproof ornaments.

Like this! As a mom, I happen to know that all of the other moms and dads are suckers for their kids and this school. I’m banking on them making a few dollars. Fingers crossed.

They’d also be cute with several tie-ons. Hmmm…. like maybe a photo of each of the grandkids…  or images of the kids’ art from this year… the wheels are turning…
