Enjoy your work!

Having such a bauble we can make many baubles with different techniques, it is enough to arouse our imagination. We will also need materials to decorate our bauble. I'll give you some ideas (choose a light bulb icon).

The first idea for a bauble: Decoupage decoration. You will need napkins or decoupage rice paper with a festive theme and a suitable glue for this (it can be transparent). To make the surface smooth and shiny, we perform the decoupage method from the inside.

The second idea for the bauble: decorating it with a spatial form inside. We place the decoration connected with festivities in the middle of the bauble, these can be artificial decorations such as mini Christmas trees, flowers of the Bethlehem star, spruce twig with a ribbon, or maybe a cone with a spruce twig, there are many possibilities here. Finally, you can decorate everything with a ribbon.

The third idea for a bauble: decorating it with tissue paper creating a stained-glass painting. We can use strips of tissue paper or pieces of tissue paper to create a stained-glass painting, the motifs can be festive or simply mosaic, abstract but rich in colour. Here you need a transparent school glue. We can decorate from the outside or inside.

The fourth idea for a bauble: decorating the blotting-paper balls from the inside. Creating colour compositions from balls of tissue paper glued from the centre of the bauble with a transparent glue.

The fifth idea for a bauble: decorating with a painted picture. We paint from the outside or from the inside, if we paint from the inside, remember about the mirror image if we want to present some characters or events. Here we can paint with paint that is opaque and relatively thick (poster paint).

The sixth idea for the bauble: decorating the bauble with coloured moulin threads. From the inside, we paste threads to create floral, festive or abstract patterns using a transparent school glue.
