    Supplies

    • Camera or smart phone
    • Cardstock or photo paper
    • Color printer
    • 4″ clear snap-on plastic ball ornaments
    • Holiday bows and bells
    • Hot glue gun
    • Scissors
    Step 1 & 2
    Step 3
    Step 5

    Steps

    1. Have you kids stand in front of a plain background and strike a wintry pose. Take three to four pictures to ensure you have a favorite.
    2. Print our their poses on a color printer using thick cardstock or photo paper.
    3. Trim the background out of the photos, leaving a small tab at the bottom to apply your glue.
    4. Add a drop of hot glue to the tab you created for your cut-out people to attach them to the inside of the ornament.
    5. Add enough glitter to cover the bottom 1/4 of your ornament.
    6. Add a couple dots of hot glue or super glue to seal your ornament closed and prevent a glitter-tastrophe from happening.
    7. Thread a string or ribbon through the top of your ornament for tree hanging and add a holiday bow or bell for embellishment, then your ornament is ready to go.
