Upcycle Dollar Store Ornaments
I had gotten a bunch of dollar store bulbs for another project that didn't work out. What should I do with them? Upcycle them into nicer ornaments!
I painted Mod Podge onto a dollar store ornament and then ...
I sprinkled it with fake snow.
Let it dry and you have a beautiful snowball.
I also sprinkled another Mod Podge coated ornament into bead confetti and it dry.
I cut up some tissue paper and placed it onto the Mod Podge coated bulb. Then I added another coat of Mod Podge on top to seal it.
I used my hot glue gun to add sequin to a bulb.
You could use other glue as well.
Using that same technique, I hot glued pearl beads onto another bulb.
I cut up a dollar store hat, and hot glued the pieces onto a bulb. Love how cozy it looks.
I added self adhesive rhinestones to a bulb.
Love how this one sparkles!
I drew a snowman face on one of the bulbs.

Using many of the materials, such as the stick-on rhinestones, would be fun way for older kids to create custom made decorations. They are available in self adhesive strips as well.
