  • Roll a piece of any color Model Magic® into a ball. Tap the ball gently on the table to flatten and shape parts of it any way you wish.
 
  • Repeat step 1 above several more times using different colors of Model Magic®. Make each new ball smaller than the last one and a different shape.
 
  • Thread the needle with fishing line and knot the ends together. Slide the needle down next to the knot.
 
  • Starting with the top of the ornament, string each piece onto the fishing line, leaving a loop of line sticking out of the top for a hanger.
 
  • Carefully press each piece against the last to make them stick together. When all of the pieces are strung together, cut off the needle and tie a knot in the end of the fishing line, as close to the ornament as possible.
 
  • Roll small balls and snakes of Model Magic® and stick them to the ornament for decoration. Add sparkly dots, dashes and squiggly lines with glitter glue.
 
  • Hang up your ornament and let it dry for 24 hours.
Tip: Model Magic® is non-toxic and air dries. Try blending colors together to form new ones.

Use the instructions below as a guide for creating your own beautiful and unique ornaments of different colors, shapes and sizes.

To form Model Magic® into a ball, roll it between the palm of your hand and a tabletop.

If children are making this project, an adult should supervize when they are using scissors and embroidery needle.
