Clear glass Christmas Ornament

1. Pour some flesh colored acrylic paint into the ornament.
2. Swirl it round until the inside of the ornament is completely covered in paint.

• Set the ornament to dry with the top pointing down so that unused paint drips out.
• When the ornament is dry inside, decorate it to look like a wizard.
• Don’t forget some white paint around the mouth for a beard.
• And then some wire for the eyeglasses.
• Make a wizard’s hat from the blue foam.
• Add yellow stars to the hat!
• Glue lengths of white yarn to the bottom of the hat before you add it to the head!
