I've made my first Christmas decorations for this year! :D
I bought some hardboard shapes at the craft store and decorated them on both sides with the intent of making some sort of dangly decorations out of them. I painted, glittered and varnished them, then glued a little decoration to both sides of the star. I painted craft glue on the sides and glittered that too.
Then I asked my husband to drill a little hole in each of them, through which I inserted a little glitter ribbon (which I saved from boxes of chocolates I bought during Christmas last year).
And voila! Little dangly stars. :D I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with them, but I'll figure something out! :) 10 of these were enough, it got a little boring doing all the glittering on the sides....hehe.
