In reply to happyhooligans. I made 6 of these tonight in different colors! Most of the contents were extra craft things I already had. Lots of ribbon, rick rack, buttons, and the like. I used slightly bigger than normal ball ornaments. They turned out pretty cute (if I may say), but I really regret my glitter choice. Stopped at the craft store tonight and for about $4 got a multi-pack of about 10 different colors. Unfortunately, the glitter is SUPER fine. Only put it into 2 of my 6 ornaments. It somehow managed to not be especially shiny while also making it hard to see through the plastic. My other 4 I did not add glitter to and I like them better. To anyone who reads this, I suggest using bigger glitter like Jackie did, not the super fine stuff. Jackie, yours look great!

In reply to anna. Of course! Kids shouldn't get to have ALL the fun, should they?

Um, this is awesome! We just got our first full sized Christmas tree and our small amount of ornaments will look sparse and sad on it, so I was looking up ornament ideas. No kids at our house but I can make the ornaments anyway, right?! :o)

Heehee! Thank you! I have to say, it was less scary than I thought it would be. Still not sure if I could use it “loose” in a project though. For now the contained glitter will have to do. lol
