Ty for all the useful alternatives to buying expensive stuff!

[@kickapoocraftycat]

These are as awesome as the candles.

[@enricolambrusco2449]

watched a lot of videos on alcohol ink bulbs. yours is the best

[@cindyjencks5848]

Alcohol inks are fantastic. I've used them on paper beads and crushed eggshell pendants. So fun.

[@witchypoo420]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting Cindy, I am loving playing with them!! Hope you are having a great week, Peace & Love

[@pandorademarco]

Oh these would make BEAUTIUL witch balls! Thanks Cali!

[@witchypoo420]

Yes, yes,yes!! Peace & Love,BB

[@margd9152]

Love the blue and green

[@karenmusa3052]

Hey Cali they're gorgeous. U can also dot on the alcohol then dob drops on the top near the neck and let then drip down. Have u tried lighting them on fire! 😃 Obviously gotta be glass but u can drop the alcohol on to a painted ball and just light it up..it doesn't burn for long but it burns the alcohol and leaves amazing patterns in the glass. Cheers Kaz from Oz 🥰

[@enricolambrusco2449]

I have been painting the outside with acrylics paints. But now I’m going to try this method. I think they’re more beautiful than any that I’ve seen

[@AlleysArt]

These are beautiful. Going try some for myself. I would never thought about the bead hangers. I have a bunch of beads because I used to make jewelry. Thank for this tutorial. You did a great job.

[@cottagerose1]

I love these. I used white plastic Easter eggs with my granddaughter the other day and used alcohol inks, they turned out so pretty. Then I found your video. Starting with white eggs cut out one step. I like how you based yours first. I think it makes it go a little faster. My granddaughter took them home and my son hung them in their weeping tree in the front yard. When I saw them hanging there they looked so pretty. Your video is great!

[@debbiecarney1724]

Beautiful , love the one with the stars :)

[@kengreen8460]

If you want the acrylic paint in the balls to dry faster, use a hairdryer to heat the balls after you've coated the inside of the ball. The heat sets the paint pretty quickly.

[@mandyd446385]

OMGOSH...So absolutely GORGEOUS! You are so talented Cali. You inspire me and make me smile these days have been so depressing. Going through a divorce. Not what I want. So thank you so very much for your kind generosity of sharing!

[@witchypoo420]

Thanks so much Amanda, so sorry to hear of your troubles right now...try to always remember that beautiful beginnings arise from catastrophic endings, sending much Peace & Love

[@twirlingswirlinggirl]

As an alternative to acrylic paint, I used gesso to coat the inside of my ornaments. Seemed to have more adherence than the acrylic paint.

[@auroraweiss9885]

Hi Cali, I sooo enjoy your BOHO videos! I am totally going to try this one as I love making ornaments. I had a small suggestion to make life easier. When I paint on ornaments, I typically roll a tube of plain paper and place it in the neck of the ornament. Now you have a "bauble on a stick" that you can spin in one hand while painting with the other. While waiting for layers to dry, you can place the ornament "wand" in the neck of a wine bottle. Hope that helps! Blessed be!

[@ivettec665]

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

These are stunning! These are FAR better than anything I've seen in the shops (I prefer my Christmas decorations hand made and I use all the beautiful free stuff our little bit of forest in Scotland gives us....only a little-all the berries are for the wildlife! ) These are the kind that you can hand down to your kids and grandkids....My sister and I still have a little robin redbreast that my Aunt Catherine gave to us and my mum cherished it for years and so do we...Cath unfortunately died at the wastefully young age of 26 after a four year battle with cancer. ..terrible in a young person. Anyway I can see these glass balls being like the baubles I remember from childhood and still have a couple (robin was more resilient than the glass balls! Wonder why...3 générations of kids and pets took it's toll! I will be making these but I think it will be next Christmas before they end up on the big tree in my sisters hallway. Thanks Cali...you're keeping me busy!

You could get a thick block of styrofoam and some dowels stuck in it to hold the ornaments

So these are so pretty. And so I went all out got me the whole shabang...even the ornaments ... Hunted high and low for alcohol..91% found... The only thing I have not gotten cuz I figured I could use any cloth for the dabbling paint on... Well you can't. It's removing my top layer. I used everything Sept felt. So my question is... Do you need the felt to dab the paint on or am I just not this clever... Seriously before I ruin all 30 of my baubles I want one like ur pink and blue dot one. And man I am half way there...this is actually a project I told my best friend I will make her 50 baubles for her tree for 2022...and now I must produce....lol. Please help I'm doing every thing you are with no felt and getting no where...

[@debbieomi]

Ahhh! So many beautiful things to make and not enough time to do it! lol I guess there could be worse problems. :-) Your video for boho candle holders came up in the suggested videos and immediately I thought how incredible this technique would be for those. You could still paint the inside but make sure to only use the battery operated tea lights. Look at me, adding even more to my list! lol Hope you're staying warm; it certainly is getting bitter cold here. Loved the bit of sunshine we had this afternoon though. :-)

[@witchypoo420]

Great minds think alike Sister lol,, I thought of that too, guess we both have a long to do list lol...Hope you are having a great holiday season, Peace & Love

Omg they are so cool and pretty! I'm so gonna make some next week on pay day. :)

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

Anastasia Beaverhausen I need to wait for my money to clear too...I've found about six things just on Cali's site that I want to make and send to my sister. I normally go home to Scotland for the holidays but it puts my sister in the position of having to 'Do' Christmas. I mean we all help but this year I didn't want her to feel obliged. I have found so many lovely things from angel tree ornaments (on the Gypsy side of the Gypsy and the Witch) I have most but not all of the ingredients for either the body butter or the body butter bars...and I am dangerously low on PVA (mod podge?) and alcohol inks. Everything except the body butter seems to require these....actually I saw Cali make tissue paper into a much prettier, stronger material and I think that would be great for the lid of the jar for the body butter...Sorry I seem to be using this reply to you to organise my pre Christmas rush! Lol! I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season and health and happiness in 2018 x

[@anastasiabeaverhausen1502]

Foxiepaws ACAnderson it's okay no worries. I'm wanting to make so much from her videos and send them to my family lol. She's awesome at what she makes. Y'all have a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year. :)

[@witchypoo420]

Thanks Deb, yes I sprayed them with a waterbased sealant...I showed it in the video and also put a link to it in the description box under the video :) Peace & Love

[@dianetatum7765]

Hi Cali! Love these beautiful ornaments! Thanks for sharing! I have a couple of questions: 1. What exactly is in the alcohol spray solution you were using? 2. How did you attach the charms?

[@arciafrench993]

I just found glass bulbs at wal mart that we’re white on inside already, for less than $4+ half off so I’m trying this today

[@witchypoo420]

Thanks so much for being here Arcia, let me know how they turn out .... Hope you are having a wonderful week, Peace & Love :)

[@tammycooper5224]

This is beautiful. I realize this video is old but does anyone have a suggestion. I am having a ton of trouble getting the ink to remain on the ornament. I have followed everything step by step but when I do to put the ink on the ball at the very beginning it is not covering the ball... it is just evaporating. I put the white paint inside the ornament. Let it dry and put my ink on the felt. Use the felt to start wiping the base color on and it is evaporating and not laying. I used fushia and after two coats with lots of ink the ornament is very, very light pink. Not at all like the one in the example. I tried wiping it off with alcohol again. adding more ink to the felt to blot it on but it just wipes on then evaporates. any suggestions?

[@BraveblueRaven]

Soooo gorgeous Cali! Love them all! I also loved the music! Tfs Great big hugs and much love and peace! Ginny xo

[@witchypoo420]

Do you need to seal on the outside to keep from scratching?
