Too Much time on my hands: Easy Filled Glass Christmas Ornaments

Easy Filled Glass Christmas Ornaments

Did you know all the Christmas stuff is on sale at Hobby Lobby?

I got a pack of 12 clear glass ornaments for $5!

I snipped some strips of vintage music sheets leftover from this project.

I put three strips in each ornament.

I wrapped jute on the top half of the ornaments and secured it with hot glue

I'm sure they'll look good on my tree, but right now they are hanging out in a basket with some pine cones and they look pretty cute.
