Baking soda and Christmas decor? You bet!

First, remove the caps from the tops of the ornament balls. Mix together equal parts flour and our magic ingredient, baking soda!

Next, we're going to spray-paint the ornaments. After you spray paint the ornament, drench it in the flour and baking soda mixture. I advise doing this one ornament at a time and wearing some gloves. it can get a little messy.

After painting and dunking, let the ornaments dry. Put the cap back on the ornament. Using a small paintbrush, gently brush off the excess flour mixture.

For a simple holiday display, place multiple flocked ornaments in a bowl surrounded by greenery or tie a simple ribbon or string through the ornament cap and hang it on your Christmas tree.

I'm going to place this in front of me in a plastic cup and I'm opening up a bottle of polyacrylic lace. Now I'm just going to rotate my ornament slowly letting that fluid cover the entire ornament.

I'm just going to give this a light tap and use a little funnel, add about two tablespoons of glitter to my ornament tilting a little bit and turning slowly. I want to make sure that every bit of this glass is going to be coated with glitter making sure you're getting rid of any excess glitter. You don't want to have globs. Roll your clay into a ball and then roll it back and forth between your hands. Make the tip just a little bit smaller than the rest exactly the same thing with my white. At this point, I am going to press these two ends together and twist them. Make sure you have a nice point at the top.

This is what my unicorn horn looks like. At this point, you want to go ahead and bake this in the oven and put some hot glue on the bottom. I'm just going to stick this onto my ornament.

A paper flower tool slides your paper in and just holds your paper in place so that you can roll it into a flower. Put a little glob of hot glue and then gently release this and put my flour in place/ I'm going to put my darker flower in the center and I have cut a slightly smaller ear out of glitter paper.

Now I'm going to bend this ever so slightly and then I'm going to attach it right here behind my flower so I'm just aligning it up make sure that it's centered you can make these out of any color whatever you want to do with these that's the fun part is you can really customize them completely.
