Scrapper's Ornament Gift
Materials:
box of clear glass ball ornaments (any size)
ribbon (your choice of color)
various small scrapping supplies
1. Twist the metal top of the ornament slowly and delicately until it slides off.
2. Once the metal top is removed, fill it with scrapping goodies that you want to give to your scrapping friend(s). You can put whatever fits into the top of the glass ornament. Small brads, snaps, buttons, and ribbon all fit into the ornament.
3. Once you fill the ornament with your choice of items, pinch the two metal wires protruding from the metal top. Pinch them until they are small enough to reenter the hole of the glass ornament.
4. Twist the metal top until it rests back on the glass ornament.
(Optional): For a quick embellishment, tie a fun and festive ribbon to the ornament to give it a holiday touch. Also, you could attach a small gift tag and tie it to the ornament.
This is a fun and fast resourceful gift to make for a fellow scrapper. They'll probably hang it from their tree, or just use the supplies inside the ornament! Need a last minute gift for the kids? Replace the scrap supplies with candies or small toys.
Today we're giving away a RAK ... just post a comment to this post, and we'll pick one lucky winner randomly. You have until Sunday morning to leave some love.
Happy Holidays!!

I am enjoying the daily Scrap-Mas. Great ideas!! I have never thought of this one. Using the ornament as a gift container is just fabulous!!!
Merry Christmas!!
wow! that's such a fun and simple christmas tutorial. i'll really have to try that!
That is such a cool idea. I bet you could etch the outside of the ornament using vinyl as a stencil too.
I have seen some of these types of ornaments filled with curled/rolled strips of patterned papers also.
They WOULD be awesome filled with flowers!
what a creative way to present gifts to your scrapping buddies. thanks, sarah! :)
That is pretty Sarah! Love the idea of putting little knicknacks on that clear ornament ball. I better find me some of those in the store now.
That's a really swell and creative way of decorating our very own Christmas ornaments! Gotta give it a try sometime soon!!
Wow, those ornaments are so beautiful!
