These are how they turned out. I can't wait to decorate my tree this Sunday.
My theme is Burlap, Blues and Bling. I have lot's of blue. I needed to mass produce some burlap ornaments cheap and easy.
First I tried heat and bond. I wanted to glue the burlap to cardboard. This didn't seem to work very well. I wasn't getting a good hold over the whole piece so I went to plan B.
Good ol' spray adhesive. I use this for many things and it was just the thing I needed here to pull off this idea. Spray the burlap and the cardboard for a stronger hold.
For the next step I traced shapes on the cardboard side. Then I cut them out and punched a hole for an ornament hook.
Stacks and stacks. I hope it is enough to get the effect I'm looking for on my tree.
Now I just have to figure out what the bling is going to be.
