Hot Glue Christmas Ornaments

As much as I love resin, I think the fumes can be harmful if you're not careful.  Since it's cold outside and working next to an open window or outside isn't possible, I think hot glue is a terrific alternative to making ornaments in silicone molds.  Re-design with Prima makes the most beautiful molds and their collection for Christmas is outstanding. Use a terrific glue gun (I love Surebonder) on a high temperature and you'll have some amazing results!  Happy Christmas and Make Your Mark!
I use every color on my tree...well, except orange.
These metallic decor waxes from Re-design with Prima look fantastic on everything from
furniture to these ornaments. You only need a small amount for a HUGE impact!
Fill the molds with hot glue and let them cool...Easy peasy!
