Hello dear friends, thank you for always contributing nice things in this community that little by little is growing. 🌱
I will finally start posting Christmas themed content, suddenly the ideas started flowing and obviously I'm going to take advantage of them because that way I can create a lot more for everyone's enjoyment.🎄🎅
Since I was a little girl I always liked the spheres with water inside, I think they are very beautiful, after asking so much for one my parents bought me a very nice one for Christmas, I had to wind it up and it sounded a nice melody. When I started to make this craft my main idea was that the ornaments could be hung but as I created it I thought it would look very nice simulating a snow globe. 🔮
Although they can also be hung on the Christmas tree or decorate a small space, it seems to me a pretty good option to create ornaments at a low cost. I made two different ones here I show you how I made one. 🎄❄

Let's star🎅❄
1- I used the cardboard from a roll of adhesive tape that ran out, when I was cutting it in half a part of it came off, which in a way made my job easier, I covered each piece inside with white cardboard and green cardboard on the outside.✂️
2- First I started by cutting different strips to make the tree, each measuring. 15 x 1 cm. 25cm x 1 cm. 33cm x 1 cm. These measures are to elaborate the parts of the tree of different sizes. The trunk measured 18 x 1 cm. All the green pieces I rolled and flattened them into a teardrop shape. The brown piece I shaped into a square. 🎄
3- I cut 5 pieces of 10 x 1cm to make the stars, roll each one, then flatten them one by one with my fingers and glue them together.
4- Glue all the pieces together.
5- I made two small gift boxes with two strips of different sizes. For the big one I used a strip of 15 cm x 1 cm. And the small box 8 cm x 1 cm. I cut some small strips to make the details. 🎁
6- I glued the tree together with the gifts using glue, then cut a circle from a disposable tray and glued it to the back. ⚪
7- I used the smooth part of a plastic bottle, cut a circle, put some anime inside. I also applied glitter on the embellishments and then glued the plastic on top.✂️⚪
8- First I cut two pieces of anime to make the base, applied glitter around the circle and put an ornament I had saved. On top of the anime to simulate snow, I glued many that I had previously separated with my fingers.
Resultado final 🎄❄
Final result🎅🎄
I hope you really liked this craft, I tried to use mostly recycled materials to make these cute ornaments which I loved, I always try to give away some things I make so I don't accumulate so many things, but this time I couldn't. I really liked the result. I liked the result too much. 🎅🎄❄
Always remember that you can make things just as beautiful and even better than this one with a lot of love and dedication. ❤
