Making your own holiday decorations creates lasting memories and keepsakes for friends and family, while adding that homemade touch to any holiday display.
Pull Together your Supplies
Assemble all your tools and beads on a clean, flat work surface so you can work quickly.
Step #1
Trace and Cut Out Shapes
Place the ornament shapes on top of the metallic foil, colorful side facing up. Trace around the shape with a skewer to create an indentation in the foil and then cut out with scissors.
Step #2
Place Ornament on Foil
Line the ornament up with the cut foil shape, and place the ornament on top of the foil. Cut out quarter inch pieces of the adhesive sheets and arrange them in a pattern on the surface of the glass.
Step #3
Add Beads
Stick the glass beads on top of the adhesive sheets.
Step #4
Use the Heat Gun to Fuse Pieces Together
While set on medium heat, run the heat gun over the entire ornament until the items are fused together.
Step #5
Add Hanging Wire
Make loops of cooper wire and attach to the back of the ornament with hot glue to easily hang.
Step #6
Hang or Wrap the Ornaments
Hang the ornaments on your own tree or wrap them as gifts for friends and family. Nothing shows how much you care more than something made from the heart.
