This will be your stand as you decorate. Gently place your ornament upside down on egg carton, resting it between egg cups. Using the handle end of the paint brush, dip the end of the handle into the paint and then dot onto the ornament. You will probably need to re-dip after each dot. Dot all over the ornament and let dry completely. Once the ornament is dry, tie a piece of ribbon through the hanger hook on the ornament. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips: <\/strong>You can use clear glass ornaments for this easy project, or if you prefer you can also use frosted or colored bulbs just adjust the paint color accordingly. <\/p>\n<p>Glass ornaments are available in abundance at most stores that carry holiday decorations. They can also be purchased affordably at discount or dolalr stores. Keep in mind that you can change the size of the polka dots by using different sized paint brushes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a fun and fast way to make some spectacular looking ball ornaments.
