Our idea is to buy new unbreakable balls for Christmas tree or renew the old balls we have had for many years. Old balls must be undecorated and monochromatic.
Then we'll customize them for example writing our monograms ...
How to write monograms on Christmas balls
- Draw the monogram you've chosen on the paper (initial, company or anything you want).
Adapt its size to your balls.
- Cut out the chosen monogram very carefully.
- If you are familiar with graphics programs, the same thing can be done with your computer and then printed.
You can choose the font you prefer and faster your work.
- Prepare as many monograms as you need.
In fact every monogram is irretrieviably lost when used.
- Glue every monogram on a ball with removable glue.
- Then you've to brush some liquid glue on the monogram and on the area around.
- Sprinkle the glitter powder.
- Let all the balls dry for about an hour.
- Then you've to take away the monogram with the help of tweezers.
