Snowflake Ornament

Decorating Glass Ball Ornaments


   
This snowflake ornament is a beautiful decoration for any Christmas tree. This craft is easy enough for children to do, and makes a great school Christmas craft. The clear ball is filled with imitation snow and then the outside is decorated with snowflake sequins.  Clear ball ornaments can be found in craft stores and in the dollar stores around the holidays.  These can be decorated in many different ways.  If you would like to see other ways to decorate clear glass ball ornaments, check out these pages too:

Things Needed:  

  • Clear glass ball ornament
  • Imitation snow (available in craft stores near the holidays, it comes in a bag)
  • Small piece of scrap paper and a pencil
  • Silver glitter glue 
  • Silver snowflake sequins

1.  Begin the ornament by removing the top covering to the ornament and set it aside.  Next, make a little funnel out of rolled up piece of paper.  Place this inside the opening to the ornament, then feed some snow through the funnel.  Use a pencil to help push it through.  Fill it up at least half way with snow.
