Silver Bell Ornaments
Make your own silver bell ornaments to hang from the Christmas tree.
 Homemade silver bell ornaments make a beautiful tree decoration. |
What You'll Need:
Cardboard egg carton
Scissors
Colored string
Pea-sized wooden beads
Needle
Silver paint
Paintbrush
Ribbon
Cut a single egg carton cup for each bell. String a bead on a string, and
secure it with a knot.
Use a needle to poke the free end of the string through the egg carton cup. Knot the end of the string, making sure the bead swings freely inside the egg cup.
When you have made three bells, tie them to a longer string. Paint the bells silver.
Tie a ribbon in a bow around the long string. Hang the ornament on your Christmas tree, and gather the family around to sing "Jingle Bells."
Next, create a snowman without having to go out into the cold. Read our article on making a stringy snowperson sculpture!
