Packer Ornaments

Madelyn loves to do crafts! She's always creating little trinkets for Mommy and Daddy, and proudly displays them on the walls all around the house. So, I decided to enlist her help making some ornaments for our Packer Christmas tree in the guest bedroom. This was a pretty easy craft to make, and didn't require many supplies.

Ribbon
Paint
Ornaments
Well, the ornaments that I thought were "so cute and small" turned out to be place card holders. Oops! But I didn't realize it until we were already home, so we made them work. :)

The process was pretty simple... pour some paint in the "ornament" and shake it all around.


Then let it dry upside down overnight.

 
When dry, add a cute ribbon, and then hang on the tree. Easy peasy!


I wish the paint would have been a little more diluted. I'm not sure if I should have added water, or something to help it "swirl" around the ornament more. I guess I didn't watch enough YouTube videos. ;)
