When I was little my nan had some beautiful plastic diorama baubles (she probably still has them!). I always wanted to jump inside and join the ice skating scene inside.
This year I was desperate to make a diorama tree decoration, with a modern twist. Luckily I found these wonderful glass baubles in Hobbycraft to fill with glitteryness, so set about making a woodland scene. I am so happy with how these turned out, how cute do they look?
YOU WILL NEED:
Glass Diorama Bauble
Wood slices (try these)
Mini Brush Trees
Gold Paint Marker
Silver Glitter
PVA Glue
Paint brush
Glue Gun
Wooden Animal
STEP ONE:
Using the glue gun, glue both trees into the bauble. Don’t worry about being liberal with the glue.
STEP TWO:
If you have plain wood slices, stamp or draw a Christmas sentiment onto one side.
Glue the wood slice, upright at the front of the bauble.
STEP THREE:
Add any woodland creatures, in my case a cute bear, upright in the front of the bauble.
STEP FOUR:
Mix up a runny mix of glitter, PVA Glue and a little water.
Use a brush to drop it into the bauble to create a covering of snow!
STEP FIVE:
Use the paint marker to add dots to the outside of the bauble.
I am so happy with how these turned out I can’t wait to pop them on the tree this year!
