Materials Needed
To create this bubbly and beautiful Christmas ornament art, you'll need the following materials:
- Bubble wrap (preferably with small or medium-sized bubbles)
- Paint in Christmas colours, such as red, green, gold, and silver
- Plain paper ornaments or thick cardstock cut into ornament shapes
- A paint palette or disposable plate for paint
- A paintbrush or sponge (to apply paint onto bubble wrap)
- Paper towels or wipes for cleanup
- Ribbon or string for hanging (if using paper/cardstock ornaments)
- Optional: scissors (to cut bubble wrap), glue (if adding embellishments)
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cut a piece of bubble wrap slightly larger than the surface area of your ornament.
- Squeeze small amounts of paint onto your palette or plate.
- Use a paintbrush or sponge to apply a thin, even layer of paint onto the bubble side of the wrap. Ensure all bubbles in the pattern have paint, but not so much that it drips.
- Carefully press the painted side of the bubble wrap onto the ornament or paper cutout, applying even gentle pressure to transfer the paint pattern.
- Lift the bubble wrap carefully to reveal the stamped design.
- Repeat with different colours or areas to create layers or more complex patterns.
- Allow the paint to dry thoroughly.
- If using paper ornaments, punch a hole at the top and thread ribbon or string for hanging.
This method creates a fun, textured, and colorful effect that captures the bubbles’ round shapes, making it perfect for kid-friendly Christmas crafts. It's simple and safe, encouraging creativity with minimal mess.
