On Day 9 we bring you some decoration inspiration for your tree with these Shrink Wrap Baubles. These baubles are so easy to make and have been created using Shrink Wrap Sleeves from La Blanche and Studio Light. (The links I have included direct you to websites where you can buy the supplies you will need to make them).
You simply take one of the shrink wrap sleeves and slide it over the correct size ball ornament.
Please note the ball ornaments must be made of plastic and not glass as the glass will shatter with the boiling water.
You then want to get a bowl of boiling water and some long reach tongs. Hold the sleeve and ball tightly in your tongs and dip the ball into the boiling water. Within seconds you will see the sleeve shrink down around the bauble. Once the sleeve looks like it has adhered smoothly, remove the ball from the water and set aside to dry. Then simply add some decorations and twine and your decoration is complete.
I have included a video below of La Blanche on Hochanda, demonstrating this method. You will need to fast forward the video until about the 46 min mark to watch the demonstration.
