OK so i have posted so much today but i figure id better get it done before the weekend starts. i have so many Christmas party's going on Saturday and Sunday. so for party favors i came up with this cute cheap gift idea. its an easy way to use old or even new nail polishes. i went to Michael's and purchased clear Christmas ornaments medium sized ball shaped ones. you can use any shapes you would like. they cost me around 2$ for a pack of 6. That's the only thing i purchased for this idea...
things you will need:
- clear glass or plastic ornaments
- nail polish
-nail polish thinner
-egg carton
-ribbon (optional)
the first thing i did was pick a color. i used a lot of reds greens blues and silver. you can use whatever you like. Next i poured a little nail polish into my glass ball and swirled it around until it covered the whole inside. you may need a little nail polish thinner to help the polish spread better and you may want to use more than one color. its all about what you like. once i had the entire ball covered i set the ball in the egg carton with the top side down so all extra nail polish could drain out. once dried i put the metal topper back on my ornament and decorated it with ribbon and some i used glitter paint to write the year. i hope you enjoy this tutorial and let me know what you think.
