Pinterest Challenge #13 - DIY Holiday Ornaments
Getting in the holly jolly spirit, yet?
LMG and I had a blast turning some old, crackly bulbs into - well - what they're becoming is another post, but this the story about how we got clear bulbs from these beauts below.
Pour a little BLEACH into the bulb, cap with your finger, and GENTLY shake, shake, shake; shake, shake, shake; shake your booty, shake your....I mean...well...you know...
The outside coating came off after soaking in water.
Once cleaned, set to dry in an egg carton.
Price for 25 bulbs...free.
That feels good.
You could CHOOSE any color.
We used what I had left from the Summer.
Pour about a tablespoon worth into the bulb and SHAKE, SHAKE, SHAKE!
Place again in the egg carton to let them drip out excess paint and dry.
I also have to make Pink ones...to which LMG emphatically announced...he would not like pink :).
Check back tomorrow and see what we turned those bulbs into. :)
My son told me he played with "broken glass" today and that it was, in his words: AWEEEESOME.
