Hello again my friends!
I have been busy making lots of miniature Christmas tree ornaments. I resized the svg file so the spindle is approximately 2 1/2" tall. You can also make these darling ornaments in any size you like. Mary has a Great collection of beautiful Christmas ornaments in her Christmas kit. Comes with a video assembly tutorial also.
Purchase the Christmas Ornament Kit
For my first min spindle, I sprayed glitter glue and sprinkled clear glitter over it. It turned out quite nice and I love the sparkle.
. The yellow one was sprayed with the clear varnish from a spray can. It didn't really turned out shiny and had a smell to it.
This one was sprayed with an air brush and polyurethane. The end results were not what I really expected. It had a yellow cast, where I over sprayed and it Really smelled like lacquer. I was hoping to preserve all my creations with this technique, but it didn't work out for me. Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained as they say. I think I will just do the glitter for now.
The min tree ornament is approximately 3" tall and can be sized to any size also.
I cut it all out in white card stock and inked with Tim Holtz distressed inks. Gotta love his inks!
I sprayed the tree with the air brush also, but you can see the yellow of over spray and it smells pretty strong. It really didn't make it shiny like I had wished for. I'm very new to air brushing, and maybe there's something else I can use instead of the Polyurethane. Email me with any suggestions, please.
This is the snowflake ornament from Mary's kit.
The Eclips cuts this delicate pattern out like butter!! I love my Eclips machine!
I cut two snowflakes and sandwiched them together with hot glue. I laced tiny green ribbon around the outside and tied it at the top. It measures approximately 2" round.
I used gold rickrack around the middle of the snowflake.
This is the back with a gold rhinestone and star. I love how it turned out! Great for any tree or package for the Holidays!
This is the snowflake in red, sized 3 1/2" round.
I used large red rickrack around the middle.
This is the back that I finished off with red rickrack and a heart using the Epiphany heart shaped tool.
I just Love the ballet slippers!

This really cute pinecone ornament measures approximately 3" x 2".
I inked the edges with browns and added a touch of gold.
Great Tree decorations for the Holidays!
That's it for today my friends!
Have a wonderful day!

Try using Polyacrylic, it doesn't yellow.
ReplyDeleteThanks Trina for the tip! Does it have a strong smell?

ReplyDeleteAll I can find is the aerosol cans, and yes, they do have a lingering smell, when spraying. Will it disapate? I think it will, but I can't be sure.
