25 Days of Christmas - Non-Messy Glitter Ornaments

Non-messy. Or should it be 'un-messy'? Whatever it is, it's awesome.

This idea is from another website, Cricut Holiday. Go visit it. It's terrific.

For this super-fast, super-easy, super-adorable project, you'll need the following:

Some glass ornaments (find these at Michael's or Hobby Lobby... they are almost always on sale but you can use a 40% off coupon at regular price to make these pretty cheap).

Extra-fine glitter

An envelope to use as a funnel

Pledge Floor Finish with Future. I'm not sure what the 'future' is, but that's what it's called.

Pop the top off an ornament and squirt some of the floor finish into it.  Don't squirt it too hard though, because it will froth and make bubbles inside.  Just let it pour.  You'll only need a little.

Swirl it around, careful not to shake it.  I used a plastic bag to hold at the top so I could get the floor finish on the top of the ornament too.

Put the ornament over the bottle to let the excess drain out.

Snip the corner off an envelope and use it like a funnel to pour some glitter in.

My 6-year old son helped to shake the glitter around.  Just hold your thumb over the opening and shake it like a polaroid.  Awesome song.

Pop the tops back on.  I thought I might give these as a gift, but they might be a little to cute... I'm thinking I'll throw some ribbon through the loop and put them up on our tree.  This will require some serious thought.

And there's no mess on the tree! Love these!
