Hello and welcome to the Christmas Extravaganza!
It’s getting closer. Eek. So fun!!!! I keep thinking I’m about done. But as long as my farm table stays full of crafting supplies… I keep finding myself sitting down and making just four one more thing. (I’ll show you the other 3 later!)

DIY Christmas Ornament Craft: Sequins in Clear Glass
This is a simple craft. Hello? It’s me here, of course it is! Totally fun though. I pop my TV on. (Christmas movies this time of year). And just go to town like a little geeky scientist. Adding and shaking and mixing. My hands were full and a little sticky, so I’ll send you over to Jessica at mom4real.com for a step by step visual tutorial on this craft process if you feel like you need it. Jessica did glitter in glass, I tried something a little different.
A simple how-to:
– Add floor wax to a clear glass ornament. A small funnel is handy. Cover with thumb, shake & swirl. You’re just lightly coating the interior of the ornament.
– Insert funnel and pour excess wax back in wax bottle.
– Add filling. In this case, SEQUINS! Just a splash.
– Cover with thumb, shake & swirl.
– Pop top back on.
– Gaze at all that shine!
