Sequined glass ball place cards
Here's how to make glittery glass ball place cards for your winter, Christmas and New Year's Eve tables! In coppery tones, these place cards have an air of yesteryear and childhood...
Materials for a place card
- a ball-shaped glass bottle with cork stopper
- hardening modelling clay
- a star-shaped figure in thin wood or thick cardboard
- a glue pen
- fine glitter (here, copper-coloured)
- gathers effect ribbon.
Contents of the glass ball
A snowman is made with white self-hardening modelling clay: a body, a head, little arms.
Once dry, add eyes, mouth, scarf, buttons... with felt-tip pens. Glue to the bottom of the bottle.
It is of course possible to use one mini-Christmas figurine per guest.
Sprinkle with glitter and replace the cork firmly.
Decorate the wooden star by going around it with the glue style and writing the name. Sprinkle with glitter and allow excess glue to fall off. Leave to dry.
Glue this wooden label onto the cork.
It's possible to make a glitter ball out of water: in this case, the figurine must be water-resistant (in baked Fimo clay, for example) and the cork must be well sealed to avoid any spillage on the party table.
