If you have a bit of time this Christmas why not try making your own DIY baubles with a bit of wire and yarn or with balloons and garden twine… they are extremely easy to make (my girls made those as a part of their countdown calendar) and look quite good on the Christmas tree.

MATERIALS
- wire or small balloons
- yarn or twine
- liquid glue (we used Mod Podge glue & glaze in one)
- glitter
METHOD
- To make wire ornament create shape from the wire and then it in yarn as shown above. Paint with glue and sprinkle with glitter.
- To make balloon ornament wrap twine around the balloon, paint with glue, sprinkle with glitter and leave to dry. Once the glue is completely dry pierce and pull out the balloon.
