Decorating on a Dollar: Glass Ball Book Page Ornamnet

Hello everyone! 

Today I want to share with you another ornament I made from book pages. I wish I could capture the glistening glitter a bit better... however I still love the way they look. I made five of them with these words on them:

• Noel
• Love
• Peace
• Faith
• Hope

Use the Helmar Decoupage to adhere the book page pieces. Add a final coat of the decoupage medium and sprinkle with glitter while wet. Ad the label that is printed on a blank book page from the same book. Take Helmar Gemstone Glue and brush it on the pine cones and sprinkle with the same glitter. Attach with a thin cord.

 

Have a Happy Helmar Holidays!
