How to Make Oversized Ornaments

This oversized ornament is made from an unfinished wooden décor piece from a craft store. Design and paint it to decorate walls and doors or to hang from the ceiling as party décor. You will need a wooden ornament, blue painter's tape and several shades of latex paint.

STEP 1:

Spray all the unfinished pieces with white primer and then let the ornament dry completely.

STEP 2:

Tape off preferred design using tape. We used a horizontal striped design, but you could create vertical patters and diamond shapes.

STEP 3:

Spray first color with the FLEXiO® 890 sprayer. Keep spray head three inches from surface and glide over surface in even, measured passes. Use the lowest spray setting for the most control. A Wagner sprayer will provide the cleanest, crispest stencil relief.

STEP 4:

Let dry thoroughly. Re-tape the surface and spray with a contrasting color. Let it dry, hang and enjoy! Kids will love to help create this fun striped ornament. Have them use tape to mask off their own designs.
