VICTORIAN CHRISTMAS CONE

A Victorian Cone Ornament

Supplies needed to complete this project:

• Embossed, paintable wallpaper (from Lowes or Home Depot)

• Fabri-Tac glue, it bonds quickly (Wal-mart carries this)

• Elmer's Spray Adhesive (Wal-mart)

• Brown acrylic paint or antiquing solution (Folk-Art brand is at Michael's or Hobby Lobby)

• Paint brush

• Scissors, hole punch

• Clear glitter, Martha Stewart Ultra Fine and Diamond Dust (Michael's, use a coupon)

• Ribbon or seam binding, a couple of buttons and a vintage earring that matches

• Pattern or template printed out from this post....look at the bottom paragraph for the link:

Place pieces good side down in an old box and spray back sides with spray glue. Press together to form a bond. Now both sides are pretty! Punch holes as on the template.

















Another vanilla Christmas goodie for our tree!!! I won't leave the lace and seam binding inside but you get the idea ~ how about a bag of candy wrapped in the tulle and stuffed inside with a little puff coming out the top??

If you don't have some of these supplies, use what you do have. Scrapbooking paper, newspaper, old sheet music... even wrapping paper, you can sandwich a piece of cardstock in between the layers to stabilize the paper better. I love creating things with what I have on hand ~
