Day 2: 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop

Welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop -Day 2.

As for my project for DAY 2--I made another shabby chic ornament.  Not too many people know but I love Ornaments at Christmas Time.  I love making them, giving them and receiving them!  :)  
Here are some other angles of my ornament.  It's kind of hard to show it all in one shot. :)
I first used redline tape to divide the ornament in 1/2.  Then I used mod podge to adhere glass glitter to the outside of the ball, only on the bottom portion.  The red line tape help keep the mod podge on the bottom.  After the first layer dried-I applied mod podge on top of the glass glitter to seal it in.  Then I let that layer dry.
I then filled the clear ball with rolled up paper and stuffed inside the ornament by taking the silver hook off.  Then I added my lace, trims & doilies to the ornament.  I finished it off with a "merry" tag. 
All of my Lace, Trims & doilies were glued on using Hot Glue.  The red line tape helped me guide the trims around the ball to hold it in place until it was hot glued on.

Day 1: 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop

Welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop Day 1. 

This hop will take place November 24th through December 5th and the new postings each day will be posted by 8am eastern standard time. 

This hop will be full of wonderful ideas and inspiration to get you well on your way of creating all of those beautiful Christmas project.  There will be a new project posted each and every day.  So hang onto your seats and lets get started!

As for my project for DAY 1--I made this shabby chic ornament.  
For the ornament I used chipboard that I cut at work on the Laser Machine.  This is one that you can not purchase in stores as it was a design that my boss created for me. 

I covered the chipboard in Tilda paper and the accent parts in white card stock.  The flower was a die cut that I layered and inked the edges and then filled the center with resin and paper flowers.  Layered on top of a "tissue paper" doily that was a gift from a sweet friend in pass swap.     

The whole stocking was trimmed out with some Diamond Dust glitter.  
I used Stampin' Up Tiny Tags and tag punch for the "Merry" and glued everything together with hot glue.  The hanger is bead trim that was glued under the flower with Hot Glue.

Day 5: 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop


Welcome & Thank you so much for stopping by the blog hop today for DAY 5 of the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop.  I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.  

*****************************
If you arrived from Daphne's blog you are in the right place.  If you just started the hop you may want to start at the beginning by clicking here. 

*****************************
For Day 5 I chose to do more ornaments with glitter.  These are a different style than the ones that I did on Day 2.  
These 4 are paper mache shaped ornaments that I purchased at Michael's.  I used various glitters from Stampin' Up, Martha Stewart, Tim Holtz, and old fashion glass glitter.  I adhered the glitter to the paper mache with modpodge. 
For the Star I used my foam brush and started out brushing one section at a time, then glittered and then moved on to the next section.
The stocking was fun to do!  I brushed on the silver/white section first.  Glittered all the silver/white, then moved to the red.  How fun would this stocking be with a name glittered on the top?  I haven't done that yet because I am not sure what name I want to put on it.  

Tip:  I did have to use 2 coats of glitter for each of these ornaments.  

This ornament is no different than the others.  I did have to do one section at a time.  First I did all the red then all the green.  After 2 coats of glitter and after it had dried, I ran silver stickles glitter glue down the folds.  I think the silver stickles glitter glue made the colors pop a bit.  
I do think the tree was the easier of the bunch.  :)  The only part that needed sectioned off was the stump of the tree.  I did all the green first then moved on to the brown  After 2 coats of glitter and after it had dried, I took some red stickles glitter glue and did little dots for decoration.  I punched the star out of Stampin' Up Glitter paper for the star.  The star is glued on with hot glue. 

Tip:  To get the glitter to not fall off you can either modpodge over it, since it will dry clear, or you can use Aqua Net hair spray.  You spray the hair spray on top of it after you are finished with it and it has dried.  You may still see some glitter fall off but it won't be quite as bad.

Day 2: 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop


Welcome & Thank you so much for stopping by the blog hop today for DAY 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop.  I hope you enjoyed the first Day of the Hop.  If you haven't been through yesterdays post as of yet, not to worry as you still can do that today.  :)    

********************

********************
Every year for Christmas I love to give ornaments to my family as one of their gifts I give.  In the past I have made them or bought them if I seen something that is just too cute to pass up.  This year is no different.  I was actually inspired by a friend who made them for a project at work and decided that these are exactly what I wanted to do this year for my family.
 This year I did a set for each of my gifts.  Each set contained a House and a Church.
The little chipboard Structures were purchased at my local Michael's.  To Decorate them, I used modpodge and various glitters from Tim Holtz, Stampin' Up, and Martha Stewart.  
 I punched out a heart out of Stampin Up Glitter paper and adhered to the right of the door.  The little bell was glued on with a hot glue gun.  I used my printer to print up "Joy to the world" and I glued it around the cording with the hot glue gun.
Just a different look at the Church.  

 For the little house I also used various glitter and modpodge.  Then I punched out the heart out of Stampin' Up Glitter Paper and printed the "Merry Christmas" on my computer and adhered with hot glue to the cording of the ornament.

I signed the bottom of each piece with my initials and the year just as a reference for years to come.
