DIY: 2 Christmas Decorations

Hello everybody! Today we will be making 2 DIY Christmas Decorations. So without further a do... lets get started!

The first DIY is a bauble and this is the easiest one. The great thing about these is that you can completely personalise them.

1. Get a bowl of PVA glue, some newspaper and a balloon.

2. Blow up the balloon until it is the size of a tennis ball and tie it off at the end.

3. Paper mache around the balloon and let it dry.

4. Once dried, it should be hard.

5. Paint it your desired colour and you can then pop the balloon after the paint has also dried, leaving a paper mache sphere.

6. Get a pair of scissors and pierce a hole in the sphere to make the handle.

7. Put the string in a circle and at the bottom (inside the bauble) put some blu tac and and press it against the string.

8. You may also search up Christmas on google, print out a pattern and stick it on to add some festivity.

Next, is an angel Christmas tree topper.

1. Grab a cardboard tube from the middle of a toilet roll and paint it white.

2. Hot glue (or any other glue) a ping pong ball to the top of the roll and draw on a face with a permanent marker

3. Get some cardboard and paint it white.

4. Cut it out into hair or the angel and wings for the angel.

5. Stick them on and any details wanted. (Maybe glitter???)

6. Then you are ready to put it on your tree. 

Merry Christmas!
