It's not the holiday season until you've watched the
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer claymation movie. I found these cute, little ornaments with characters from the movie a few years ago. You're suppose to hang them on a tree with metal hooks, but those never keep an ornament facing the right way. This year I decided to try clothespin Christmas ornaments. Here's what I did:
1. Use super glue and attach the small ornament to the wooden clothespin. Let it dry overnight.
2. With a small paint brush, paint the clothespin in sections with modpodge around the ornament and sprinkle with glitter. Continue to apply glue and glitter until the pin is covered to your liking.
3. Apply a last coat of modpodge over the glitter to keep it in place, then put the clip on a surface to dry (I used the edge of a glass).
4. Allow the glue to dry completely then attach the finished ornaments to the tree!
Ornaments were purchased from Wal-Mart a few years ago, but I found these similar ornaments on
eBay.
Glitter,
clothespins, and
modpodge were purchased from
Hobby Lobby.
