Laminated Snow Globe Ornaments
Ingredients
- Free Printable Snow Globe Template (Found at https://www.craftymorning.com/free-laminated-snow-globe-template)
- Laminator
- Laminating sheets
- White acrylic paint
- Glitter
- Card stock paper
- Twine
- Photos
Instructions
- Open a laminating sheet and trace the printable template circles on it. You can fit about 4 per sheet.
- Paint one side near the bottom for the snow. Have the kids put white dots of paint around where the picture will be. It's cute when they use their fingerprints. Lightly add glitter around image. Let paint completely dry.
- Cut out the image of the child (cut close with no background). Position image on the painted circle in the middle and secure with double sided-tape. Try to stay away from the edges so the laminating sheets will stick. Laminate.
- Punch a hole in the top for string. Cut out a base (use printable template) from laminated card stock. Glue or tape the base near the bottom of the laminated circles. Write their name and the year with sharpie.
- Give as a gift or hang on the Christmas tree! *If you want the whole thing to last longer, do only 2 ornaments on a laminate page and put the card stock paper base underneath then laminate all together!*
Here's Anthea's kids versions of the ornament...so cute having all her kids in one ornament!!
