If you’re looking for a way to add some flair to your tree or spruce up ornaments you already have, this DIY ornament tutorial from Martha Stewart is a great way to do it. Add a few marbled ornaments to your tree or add some glitz and shimmer to your tree with craft glitter and a few clear bulbs!
Supplies needed (you can purchase the exact or similar):
Darice Clear Glass Disc, 3 1/2″
Darice Clear Glass Ball 100 mm
Darice Iridescent Glass Ball 35 mm
Martha Stewart Multi-Surface Satin Acrylic Craft Paint in Slate Grey, Wild Blueberry, Rose Pink, and Poodle Skirt
Martha Stewart Multi-Surface Marbling Medium
Craft Glitter and Ornament Hooks
Directions:
These swirled stones get their look from mixing paint in soft tones with marbling medium (a specialty product that takes the mess out of this technique).
- For the marbled ornaments, remove the top, add a teaspoon each of two paint colors mixed with marbling medium, swirl, and dry.
- For the flashy one, brush glue on the bottom and roll in glitter and let dry.
