How To Decoupage Old Christmas Ornaments
Are you getting tired of hanging the same ornaments year after year? Here is one idea - decoupage. Decoupage is Fantastic Cleaners' favourite craft and I will share with you how to decoupage Christmas balls.
1. Choose your paper.
2. Sand the surface of the ball. The smoother it is, the better the papers will stick.
3. Cut the paper in small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the easier it will be for you to glue them, following the round shape of the ball.
4. Glue the pieces to the object.
5. Wait for the glue to dry and apply a few coats of varnish or ModPodge.
6. Enjoy!

You can always add some glitter too!
You can dip the ornament or apply glue on the paper cut outs - it is always up to you!

Do you seal these with anything to keep the paper in place over time? I have a ton of scrap wrapping paper, and some cocktail napkins, to boot !
