Make it Monday Christmas in July Christmas ornaments


Remember these a lot of us seen them on our grandmothers Christmas trees.  They are really simple to make.
All you need is a Styrofoam Christmas ball. ( I get the one covered in satin stands on clearance at the end of the year.  You can leave the satin on or take it off I prefer to take it off. )
Straight pins like you would use to pin stuff you are sewing together.
Sequins
Very small beads just make sure you pin will go threw the hole in the bead.
And Glue.
It is so simple all you do is put a bead then a sequin on the pin. Dip the point of the pin in a little glue and stick it into the foam ornament. Keep going till it is all covered and you have a really nice ornament for your tree. 

 These look really good on the tree.  The light reflects off of them and as more sparkle to your tree.  They also look nice in a big bowl or vase on the mantel or a table.
  
 You don't just ave to do ball you can do any shape you would like this would even look good on a Styrofoam tree.

If you try these please let me know I would love to see pictures
Hope you have a great day
