Our New Christmas Ornaments!






I was hanging out in the living room a little bit ago, and was trying to decide how to decorate these clear glass ornaments I had. I had recently bought this little tub of ultrafine glitter (Art Glitter, which is amazing!), and loved the dark purple color. I also had a 2 liter of flat Sprite from the night before. The thought of glitter inside the glass ornaments appealed to me, and I used what I had. I couldn't think of a way to use glue, so I used Sprite. I swirled a bit inside each ornament, drained it, and used bent cardstock to funnel in the glitter. Shake it up, and voila! It stuck, and they're still going strong! Apparently the bond of Sprite and glitter will last.
