Book Page Ornaments

Photobucket


In continuing with the Book Page theme, today I'm sharing with you a simple ornament made with book page strips, Mod Podge, and glass ornaments (like these).  I actually made several and put them in a bowl in my foyer to add to the theme I've got going on there.


 These are so simple to make, but I love the finished product.  Actually, they made for a fun afternoon project for my son and I yesterday.  I had this box of glass ornaments that have actually moved with us three times (kind of ridiculous, I know); so, this year I set out to use them all.  Stay tuned as I will be sharing with you my other glass ornament project soon!

The step-by-step is basically...
1. Cut strips of book paper.
2. Brush matte Mod Podge on your glass ornament and place the strips all over the ornament in an overlapping fashion to completely cover it.
3. Allow adhesive to dry and brush another coat of Mod Podge.
4.  Let dry, hang on your tree or place around your home for some festive printed holiday decor!
