Baby's First Christmas Ornament!


This is a very simple project, anyone can do it! The whole thing was around three dollars with tax. This is what you will need, and how much I paid...

2 spools- 1/4 to 1/2 inch width ribbon .47 ea.
Hot glue gun, 1 stick of glue .10
2- 2x3 peices of glass ( size of your choice) 2.00
1- printout of the side of your baby's face (needs to fit inside the glass)
1- printout of baby's first and middle name
1- printout that says "Baby's First Christmas"
scrapbook paper for the background .50
Glue stick (just a tiny bit)

I went to the dollar store and chose 2x3 frames and just took out the glass. Be sure the clean off the class with some window cleaner before you preserve your fingerprints inside the ornament forever!




For the silhouette of the baby, I just printed mine out after I got it sized right. Then I flipped it over so the white side was face up, and put a little acrylic white paint over it so the dark ink on the other side didn't show through.

Then I printed and cut out my baby's name and stuck it to a brown background with a glue stick. Then you just glue the silhouette and the name to a background color of your choice...
I chose green.






The back of the ornament will say "Baby's First Christmas" which I just typed up and printed out. I put a little criss-cross background behind it and stuck it on to my green scrapbook paper with a glue stick.














Next, you take your two pieces of clean glass and place the paper in between them.

















Then you're going to take the ribbon of your choice and begin hot gluing it around the edges of the glass to hold it all together.
















So it will look something like this...











Then I took two colors of ribbon, about two feet long and folding them in half so they were a foot long. I glued the fold to the top of the ornament and tied a bow so that it can hung on my tree!

Simple, yet elegant!

  35. Since January of 2009, I do not have reflux symptoms whatsoever
    any longer. I have a hiatal hernia and that i lost about twenty five pounds given that
    January of 2009 (I used to be diagnosed in February 2009
    with BE). My question is, do I need to have to prevent
    all of those things with out getting any reflux at all.
    I really study a couple of articles or blog posts expressing that
    espresso and tomatoes really reduce your probabilities of particular cancers
    like esophageal, so I started consuming coffee and consuming tomatoes
    once again but I need feedback on these concerns.

  36. I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I by no means discovered any interesting article like
    yours. It is beautiful value sufficient for me.

    In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content material as
    you did, the internet will be much more helpful than ever
    before.

  39. If you go with the baking soda and lemon program, make positive your finish
    up with a regular mild bar soap. Soap will cut the oil in the lemon
    off on the tooth. The same goes for eating lemons; bar soap is the only mild thing to cut it.
    Toothpaste will not do it either. Otherwise the lemon oil left about the
    teeth will erode the enamel. There's a tooth soap product on the market that will perform just at the same time, without the soapy flavor. Either one will function.
