[Nfb-krafters-korner] FW: A cute Christmas you will have a ball making

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

Michaels has them, but I was not paying attention to weather they were plastic or glass.  I think they were glass.  They started their Christmas section, a few weeks ago.
If anyone likes to paint, they have glased white sera mic shapes to be painted.  Not my cup of tea! 
I always wondered what people did with those glass balls?

Hi  all,



This is an ornament I have been making for years. It  starts with a clear glass Christmas ball ornament; the kind that has a  little metal top with a ring for hanging on the tree that can be removed.  You will need several, because they do tend to break easily while being  recreated into a glass popcorn ball ornament.



Popcorn Filled  glass Ball Ornament

Fill those thin glass balls with popcorn! It's  easy. Works best if made 1 at a time.

Remove the metal  top.

Place 15-25 kernels of popcorn in the ornament.

Place the  ornament in a paper bag and put in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.

Listen carefully, you may not need to leave them in  for

a full two minutes.

When the popcorn slows down and almost  stops popping, remove the paper bag from the microwave and remove the glass  ball ornament carefully, it will be extremely hot. Sprinkle some glitter in  if you like.

Replace metal top when filled glass popcorn ball ornament  is cool.

Tie a pretty ribbon on the top and hang from your  tree.

Enjoy!



Paulette
