How to Make Handmade Tin Foil Ornaments
A friend called and wanted help organizing a holiday sale for about 10 artists (I’m included) and the group wanted to have a Christmas tree decorated with each artists’ handmade ornaments. I thought, “Great, another project! But why not?” Several days later my ornaments are ready with directions so you can make some too! It was such fun and did not take much time! They could also be insets in boxes, gift tags, book covers and more. A great stress reliever too! Materials: cardboard, tin foil, 2” wide silver electrical tape, a blunt tool (could be a medium ball point pen), a punch, acrylic paint, paper towel, brush, water, latex gloves, silver thread Materials Needed 1.
