MATERIALS

STEP 1

Grab the clear ornament and remove the cap

STEP 2

Gently pour the Map n Glo liquid inside the ornament and swirl around slowly making sure that it gets evenly coated inside

Since the Mop n Glo that I purchased comes in a large bottle, I poured some of it into a smaller container so it's easier to pour it inside the ornament.

Also, in case you've never used Mop n Glo in the past, this liquid is a bit sticky if you accidentally spill some on your hand. I make sure to have some wet wipes on the side just in case.

STEP 3

Cut a piece of copy paper, make a small funnel and place the funnel inside the ornament.

STEP 4

Grab the glitter of your choice and slowly pour it inside the ornament then rotate the ornament around. Stop when you see that the whole ornament is covered with glitter from top to bottom.

Another method is to cover the opening of the ornament with paper or a cloth then shake it up and down.

Using a disposable cup, a container, or using the original glitter bottle, pour the extra or excess glitter so you can use it again in the future.

STEP 5

Grab the cap of the ornament and close it

STEP 6

Personalize the ornament with someone's name or use holiday-related words such as Merry, Peace, and Jolly.

If you don't have a cutting machine such as a Cricut or Cameo Silhouette, other options are handwriting them using acrylic paint pens or purchasing sticker letters.

For this example, I used my Cameo Silhouette 4 machine to cut the words Merry, Peace, and Jolly using the white Oracal 651 adhesive vinyl.

And that is it our friends! We hope that you guys have an awesome holiday with you and your family & friends and we also hope that this tutorial helped with your DIY Holiday activity!
