Instructions
Use the die-cutting machine to cut the small house shape out of glitter paper. The paper is a bit thicker than usual, so I usually run it through twice. Use a weeding tool or any other pointed object to punch out the windows and door.
Just apply a bit of glue to one flap at a time (starting with walls) and press together until secure. I chose to attach an entire flat roof instead of the included shingle die cut. I just cut a rectangular piece out of silver paper and attached it to the glue gun.
Use a flat ruler or cutting machine scraper to slice the bottom 1/3 of the styrofoam ball. Apply hot glue to the lower back section and press in place on the ornament half. Make sure your hot glue gun is on the low setting, or you’ll melt the styrofoam ball too much.
Apply glue to the bottom of both the glittered house and mini tree and stick in place at the center of the styrofoam ball.
Pour an ample amount of glitter into the ornament. Apply glue to the other half of the styrofoam ball and close both sides of the ornament together. Hold in place long enough for the adhesive to harden completely.
