Made a Christmas bauble from a plastic Petri Dish ...... this is being entered into the Country View Crafts Challenge for November whose subject is 'Christmas Gifting' ......
The Petri dish is 2.5 inches in diameter and comes in two pieces a bottom and a lid (which overlaps the bottom).
I decorated the bottom first by cutting a piece of double sided printed paper to fit inside the bottom, and adding a number 25 to show through at the back. With the lid off I then added the printed penguin and snowflake added on foam pads with the 'Ho Ho Ho' added as shown.
Next I added some artificial snow and put the lid in place to make a 'shaker'. I then cut a piece of white and red bakers twine and knotted it at one end leaving a little spare. This was carefully attached at the top with hot glue to form a hanger.
I then cut a piece of red/white thick pipe cleaner to encircle the dish. This was carefully applied with hot glue, sealing the dish top to the bottom and attaching the pipe cleaner at the same time.
I then cut more twine, tied in a bow and added this with hot glue to cover the pipe cleaner join to finish ....
