These DIY Giant Ornaments are seriously the best handmade Christmas Ornaments you’ll ever make! They add a wow appeal to your holiday decor made of balloons!
I am decorating my coffee bar shed into a holiday Christmas house this year and needed handmade ornaments that dazzle and bring big fun to the outdoors. Cue these DIY Giant Ornaments! They are so easy to make with giant balloons and recycled deli containers!
I got the inspiration from this YouTube video. Watch how we made ours on the video here and get the list of materials we used below.
DIY Giant Ornaments
Large 36″ balloons
Deli containers (cleaned and dried)
Thick wire
Hot glue gun
Wire cutter
Scissors
INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1. Blow up your large balloons
Step 2. Spray paint your deli container we used two coats of silver spray paint. You could do any color. Gold would be nice too!
Step 3. Use sharp scissors to make holes on two sides of the container.
Step 4. Cut a strip of wire and tuck one end on the hole and the other on the other hole to make a loop. We just folded the wire on the inside to hold it in place.
Step 5. Hot glue the rim to the top of the balloon!
And yes you can apply a light level of hot glue to the balloon and it won’t pops! These large balloons are very thick. You can use a low heat gun if you’re worried.
