  • Glitter Glue
  • Model Magic

Steps

  • Step 1

    Select festive Crayola Model Magic® colors or mix two or more colors to make your own hues. Flatten a Model Magic slab. Use a cookie cutter or modeling tools to cut out a holiday shape.

  • Step 2

    With Crayola Scissors, cut a short piece of ribbon to use as a hanger. Fold the ribbon in half and attach to the back of your ornament by covering the ends with Model Magic compound. Model Magic dries to the touch overnight and completely air-dries in 2 to 3 days.

  • Step 3

    Decorate your ornament using Crayola Glitter Glue. Air-dry the ornament before hanging.
