Marble Extravaganza

So, it’s Christmas time. You went to grab the box of baubles you use every year, some of the baubles are scratched or have paint peeling off. Not very festive, right? This DIY will help you transform clear baubles into colourful decorations! 

  1. Scratch or peel off the remaining paint off the bauble 
  1. Open the bauble and add a teaspoon of water into the bauble 
  1. Pour enamel paint into the bauble (you can add as many colours as you like) 
  1. When you’re satisfied with the colours, move the bauble in circular motions in your palm, swirling the paint around and ending up with the beautiful marble effect 
  1. Close the bauble and let dry for 24 hours
  2. Hang on your Christmas tree
