Frosty Ornament

Doesn’t he just make you smile?  First of all, let me apologize for the lighting.  I had to turn the “white” down because this ornament is glass and was causing a terrible glare.  Now on to the ornament.  This started as a large, clear ball.  I coated the inside of the ball with white acrylic paint, turned it upside down in a bottle and waited for it to dry.  While it was drying, I colored 2 Large Rhinestones and 7 Basic Rhinestones with a black Sharpie or Copic marker.  On the large rhinestones I added white dots with the White Gel Pen.  The carrot nose is made from the Simply Pressed Clay and painted with orange acrylic paint – and, of course, let it dry.

The hat is a glove with the fingers removed.  Later this week I’ll show you what I did with finger!  I ran Sticky Strip around the ornament to hold the hat down. 

Here’s a tip for you – I glued all the rhinestones to the ornament. I don’t want Frosty to lose a eye while in transport!  If you can stand all the drying time, this ornament is easy and fun to make!
