I’ve been busy this week making ready for the Vacation Bazaar I’m taking part on this weekend. Along with vacation prints and ceramics I made just a few ornaments to promote as effectively. I made ceramic state ornaments (just like these) at my native clay studio along with the hand painted baubles under.
I spied these shapely bisque ceramic ornaments on-line and couldn’t wait to get inventive with them. I painted a dozen summary and botanical motif ornaments with them to promote on the market this weekend. Right here’s a glimpse of some I’ve accomplished thus far.
For those who’d wish to make some for your self or for associates, purchase a dozen of those matte ceramic ornaments and get inventive!
I used my stash of paints, glitter, and leftover gold leaf to make these, then added chiffon ribbon to complete them off.
I actually just like the matte end and form of those ceramic ornaments however ‘tis the season so as to add sparkle and bling. This may be performed in just a few other ways, with glitter, gold or silver leaf, metallic paint, or a mixture which is what I did.

One method that works very well is to color on craft glue in small strokes then sprinkle unfastened glitter on prime:
Hand utilized metallic paint provides a bit of little bit of glimmer however glitter glue provides extra:
Lastly, you may paint on craft glue then apply gold leaf in small strips. I’ve discovered up to now that working with gold leaf sheets takes endurance due to the wonderful flakey materials, however the shine you get from gold leaf is so good.
I’m making a video that I’ll share on Reels on how these got here collectively. The colours and patterns are simply what flowed within the second for me.
