You know that awful feeling that you get in the pit of your stomach when you drop a favorite vintage Christmas ornament…or two, or three?

 I’ve discovered that in those OOPS moments, there can be a way to recycle the old Shiny Brites glass Christmas ornaments and create something new!

My daughter was kind enough to help me here, and she pulled off the reusable tops from the broken ornaments. Be sure to save those and BE CAREFUL.

How To Make Your Own Glitter I like to put all of the broken bulbs into a Ziploc freezer bag within a paper towel first. Take a rolling pin and roll it over the bag several times back and forth.

The glitter can be applied to anything in your Christmas arsenal. I’ve used a clear ball and brushed some craft glue on in spots and then sprinkled on with a small spoon.

Glue the glitter on to pinecones as well for a bit of glitz. You know how I love a spritz of glitz!
