Glitter Santa Belt Ornaments

 I have a pretty serious obsession with Santa Belt ornaments so I decided to combine a couple of other peoples ideas together to create this.




 You will need:
-Clear ornament balls
-Red Glitter
-Pledge floor care(will have a blue lid and say "future" on the bottle)
-Black Ribbon
-Q Tips
-Silver Sparkle Glue/paint
-Black Paint
-Cotton Balls(not pictured)
-Envelope(to use as a funnel)
-Hot glue gun(not pictured)


 First thing you need to do is get all of the caps off of the ornaments.



 Next you will put some of the pledge into the ornament(Be sure to pour slowly and not squirt it in too fast, it helps keep the foam to a minimum).


 Slowly swirl the pledge around the ball to coat the entire inside. And then pour the remaining pledge back into the container.


Now you will use your envelope to funnel in the red glitter. Use a generous amount, any extra you will pour back into your envelope.



Swirl the glitter around so it coats the entire ornament. You then want to cover the hole with your finger and shake the glitter to cover the entire top.


Pour the remaining glitter back into the container to reuse on your next ornaments. 



 Put the caps back onto the ornaments.


Now you need to wrap the ribbon around the ornament and hot glue it together.


Next I used the silver glitter glue to paint on the buckle.



I then used the q tip to paint the three buttons onto the ornament.


Finally I tucked a small portion of the cotton ball into the ornament topper to create the beard.
