Light Bulb Ornaments
You can paint on used or new electric light bulbs and create the most gorgeous Christmas Ornaments with them. Make sure they are clean by wiping over with Vinegar and water or alcohol wipes. Avoid touching them with your fingers. Then prime them ready for your acrylic paints by spraying with ŽKrylonŽ 1311 matte spray, or another brand of spray as long as it is matte.Or, you can brush on some all-purpose acrylic sealer - any brand. Then leave them to cure for a day or two. Base coat in the colour desired and decorate away.

Plaid has a book called "Ornaments to light up your Tree" by Rita Grisham and Helen Nicholson that has an angel made from a light bulb. It also has some Santas, snowmen, and a penguin. Very cute!
