DIY: Jeweled Ornaments

4:02 PM

Remember my DIY pearl ornament from last year?  Well this year I wanted to add even more shimmer to my tree, the DIY way.  Here is what I came up with.  Gorgeous ornaments on the cheap are my favorite!  You can use just about any jewel that you can find.  I of coarse, chose the cheapest little crystals that I could for this project.  I found a HUGE bag of them at Walmart in the craft section.






Simply buy some little glass bulbs, and some jewels of your liking...


...and hot glue those pretty little things to the bulb 'till it sparkles.


Just one I made with some bigger beads that I found.



 I love how the light hits these little ornaments.  They seem to change color at just about every angle!  They will be a lovely addition to my Christmas tree this year, and may even be the perfect gift for my friends and family!  Shhh... don't tell. 


Happy Holidays!

Sisters Meg and Steph discovered that while living the life of poor, newlywed, college students, with fresh little babies in the middle of The Great Recession they could still have what they needed and wanted if they got to work and created things with their own hands. This mindset has saved them thousands of dollars in living expenses, and as they share their knowledge with others, the savings keeps growing.
