I started with one of my clear glass baubles (actually I reused one that I screwed up from another ornament idea...) Then I pulled out my stack of gardening catalogs and cut out a bunch of pictures of white flowers. I trimmed them as close to the blooms as I could with my embroidery scissors. Next I Mod Podged them (glossy) all over the outside of my ornament. At this point I thought maybe white was not a good color choice, since my flower pictures started to get see-through when I podged them. However they dried back in their original state. Yay! I also just let the pictures wrinkle however they wanted, and squished them down as flat as they would go. Does that make sense? Then I gave it a good coating of podge all over the surface. Done!
I feel like this ornament doesn't come across that well in photos. Trust me, it looks great in person! Here's a photo of the other side - lovely lovely lily!
This ended up being a fun but very messy project (Who doesn't love peeling the mod podge skin off of your hands?), but I'm totally happy with the result!
