These beautiful glass ornaments are not only easy to make, they are also inexpensive. The supplies can be bought at any craft store, or perhaps you already have some of the items around your house. Purchase clear glass ornaments, any shape or size you prefer. They often come in a box of 6 or 12. If you are giving these as gifts, it's nice to make an entire set of 6 and wrap them in a nice gift box. Gather up items such as holly berries, ribbon, raffia, or greenery, for decorating the top of the ornament. For the swirl paint, any acrylic crofters paint will do.
Choose your favorite colors or match them to your decor, however, rich jewel tones look the best. Select a few metallic paints, silver and gold look great mixed with the colors. You will also need a glue gun, a little bit of wire, and a small eye dropper. Lay down some newspaper on your work surface and your ready to go!
