These marbled paper plate and paint splat ornaments are so much fun to make with your kids, and they’ll love showing them off all holiday season long. They’re easy to make and only require a few simple supplies, so get started today!
Craft Supplies:
* Large or Small Paper Plate {one per Christmas ornament craft}
* Tulip Puffy Paint {or any craft paint in a squirt bottle}
* Gold or Glitter Cardstock Paper
* Basic Craft Scissors
* Ribbon Bow
* Hand-Held Office Stapler
optional materials – glitter, rhinestones etc.
Directions:
* Please make sure you have a good working area that can get dirty because paint will squeeze out of the sides of this craft!!!
* First fold your paper plate in half {one per Christmas ornament craft you want to make today.}
* Unfold and squirt some holiday colored paint on one side of the paper plate {I like the Tulip Puffy Paint for this particular step since it’s in a nice controlled squirt bottle} Be sure to keep the paint inside the paper plate and not place too much down.
* Once the paint is down, go ahead and fold/squish your paper plate together again. Be sure to rub your hand all over the folded piece, so the paint will cover your the inside nicely {paint WILL more than likely squeeze out the sides, so be sure to pay attention to that and clean up with baby wipes!}
* Now carefully unfold your piece to reveal your “marbled Christmas ornament” design inside.
* If desired, sprinkle some glitter/rhinestones on top of the wet paint, to create more texture and sparkle.
* To finish the Paper Plate Marbled Ornament – cut out a small rectangle for the top of the ornament and it, along with a bow, to the top of the paper plate.
* Then set it aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly.
* Don’t forget to show off those creations by taking pictures when done! #gluedtomycrafts
