This is one of the few handmade ideas that actually look really good and high quality in the end. Just to show what creativity and skill really mean! Congrats for this video, very good work 👍

[@IrenesDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@mistygirl3995]

I just now found your video. I agree with the commenter, most DYI decorations look cheap and not well thought out and honestly, your video is one of the very few in which I have found inspiration. Well done and beautiful. I will be making some of these tonight.

[@IrenesDIY]

Thank you)

[@denisestine2141]

Alcohol inks would also work very well! Your ornaments are beautiful!!

He leído casi todos los comentarios para no preguntar sobre lo mismo y me ayudó mucho encontré varias respuestas de las que yo tenía duda. Irina en verdad es usted talentosísima, seguiré insistiendo en que ponga subtítulos en la realización de cada proyecto que hace porque vale muchísimo la pena para nosotros que la seguimos y queremos aprender. Gracias, bendiciones siempre ❤️

[@IrenesDIY]

Gracias, Ana! Trataré de hacerlo, pero mi español es muy, muy mal para esto))

[@sarahyates6055]

Love these they look really effective. The way to get the paint to stick is firstly don’t spray paint them. First wash them lightly in soapy water to get rid of any grease. Lightly sand them gently then you can add the glue drips and then paint them. You’ll find the paint sticks better and smoother because you’ve “keyed” them by sanding them.

[@IrenesDIY]

Thanks, you're right! Sanding would help here!

[@myradias4231]

What kind of paint can be used?

[@lzrd8460]

These are amazing! I never thought to use hot glue in this way. And the snowflakes on top of a plain babble- brilliant! You a very creative. Thank you for sharing. Happy Holidays.

[@debbiedewey4150]

Love them all....just was thinking about the issues u had with the glue dripping ones..I was thinking use Vaseline to cover the top of xmas ball then put the glue drippings...let dry then carefully remove the drippings as a whole...paint ball then carefully put the drippings back on ..glue in place after u have spray painted in colour of choice...just a thought haven’t tried

[@ninatophin8903]

Опа, теперь и на английском...

[@lzrd8460]

Why didn’t you just paint the ball before dripping the hot glue?

[@cocolu815]

Very Nice!.. Love the snowflake paper clay over the Christmas bulbs/ornaments.

[@marymora7206]

What a nice job you do! the dark blue and gold spheres are my favorites! CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR CREATIVITY!

[@theresaalbano]

If you coat the inside of the silicone mold with powdered cornstarch with a dry paint brush, they pop out soooooooo much easier

[@IrenesDIY]

Thanks! Wow, never thought of having a halloween tree! Cool idea)

[@xiloap]

Stunning Ornaments!

[@notebookluvr]

These are very elegant and beautiful. I tried to find flocking powder years ago, even on Ali, and I couldn't find any! At least not in larger amounts. And most had tinsel glitter mixed in. Maybe they have some now. Seems like I have ideas before they become popular.

Hi, this is chalk paint, I've mixed it myself from 3 parts acrylic paint, 1 part white clay (kaolin) and 1 part water

Super prelijepo bravo 💯💞💕💯💕💖💞💯🥰💓💗👍💯💕💕💞

[@hazelshaw9289]

Hallo there, I just want to suggest you use hot glue in the moulds instead of air drying clay. It is much lighter and can easily be wrapped around the top of the baubles.

[@lzrd8460]

Yes, hot glue remains flexible and is lighter than air dry clay. You can also fill your moulds with caulking. The caulking must have some silicon in it or it might stick in your mould and ruin it. There are videos on KZbin showing how to use caulking in moulds.

[@hazelshaw9289]

@@lzrd8460 yes here in the uk we call it flexible filler.

[@redmarilynn]

@@hazelshaw9289 Hi, I'm in the UK too. Do you mean Pollifilla? Many thanks.

[@hazelshaw9289]

@@redmarilynn hi again, no I did mean use a hit glue gun and fill the molds with the glue. it dries very fast and is flexible, it can be painted and as long as the mold is silicone it should come out of the mould with ease.

Hi, this is acrylic paint, I'm using Polycolor in bronze

@@IrenesDIY Thank you! I plan to make some. Wish me luck. I love your mold. I couldn’t find exact one on amazon. Found one close enough.

I totally agree your creativity is great. Did you say you put a prime on the balls. I really want to copy your work. Thanks

Thanks! Yeah, I've primed them, because my chalk paint didn't hold on Krylon metallic)

Hello! Around minute 6 you say "after the bubble has dried you dry brush the top." What product exactly do you use for that silver/bronze effect? Thank you so much for this video! It's amazing! I really want to try making these snowflake vintage bubbles.

[@IrenesDIY]

Hi, I used bronze acrylic paint for that (mine is of Italian brand Maimeri, called Polycolor, color is called bronze)

You could try paper clay. It dries much lighter than regular air dry clay.
