Last year, I made Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle ornaments. They turned out super cute but by the end of the project, I had no fingertips left because I'm burnt them so much by hot gluing the ribbon on. A stroke of genius hit me when I was at Hobby Lobby shopping for the supplies and turned this into the simplest project ever! Here's a step by step guide how to make your own!
Supplies
Clear ornaments
4 containers of 8 @ $3.99=$15.96
Black Duct Tape (Mini roll)
2 rolls=$3.58
Googly Eyes
2 bags=$5.98
Yellow Shredded Paper
2 bags=$2
Black Ribbon
$3.99
TOTAL: $31.51 for 32 ornaments=98 cents each!
Step 1:
Stuff yellow shredded paper into clear ornament.
So far pretty easy, right?
Step 2 & 3:
Take black duct tape and wrap around the center of the ornament. I did this task while Deven worked on step 3 which was to cut black ribbon (or whatever color you'd like) and tied them on to the ornaments so they could hang on the tree.

Heat up the hot glue gun and glue on the googly eye.
Step 5:
Go a little crazy because you're done!
Seriously, how simple was that? And they're adorable! We made enough for each person in her class at school, the kids at the sitter's plus our neighbors, friends, and whoever else we'd like to give them to!
Step 6:
Save one for yourself and hang on your own tree!
Happy crafting!
