I keep seeing all these great ideas for decorating and\/or filling clear glass ornaments<\/a> (on Pinterest, of course!), so I decided to compile a big list of all my favorites. Just click on the picture to take you to the tutorial by the original creator.<\/p>\n

This is so rustic, and I love the tiny little pine cones:<\/p>\n

\"pine<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0Here's a simpler version, but equally gorgeous (I think this might be a spring of rosemary):<\/p>\n

\"pine<\/a><\/p>\n

And since I'm on a rustic theme, isn't this cute? A little bit of holly, faux snow, and some tiny wooden blocks, and you've got yet another variation:<\/p>\n

\"holly<\/a><\/p>\n

An ornament filled with pearls… very elegant.<\/p>\n

\"clear<\/a><\/p>\n

You could even fill an ornament with cheap dollar store beaded necklaces!<\/p>\n

\"clear<\/a><\/p>\n

Or mini gift bows! So cute.<\/p>\n

\"gift<\/a><\/p>\n

I think this is my favorite idea of all… put your kid's Christmas list inside an ornament and you've got a keepsake forever. How awesome will that be years from now?<\/p>\n

\"kids<\/a><\/p>\n

Here's a couple of different ideas for using fake snow. This one is simply a paper tree cut out, glittered, and surrounded by snow:<\/p>\n

\"paper<\/a><\/p>\n

A tiny bottle brush tree sitting in snow:.<\/p>\n

\"bottle<\/a><\/p>\n

A snow filled ornament, with a simple piece of ribbon wrapped around the outside:<\/p>\n

\"grosgrain<\/a><\/p>\n

These are adorable. Just some snow, easy painted face, and a baby sock for a hat:<\/p>\n

\"clear<\/a><\/p>\n

I hope you can stand all this cuteness, 'cause here's another one. A melted snowman inside the ornament. Oh. Em. Goodness….<\/p>\n

\"melted<\/a><\/p>\n

How about rolling up a bunch of strips of paper? (or ribbon…?)<\/p>\n

\"scrap<\/a><\/p>\n

Solid red paper strips made into a Santa belly ornament:<\/p>\n

\"santa<\/a><\/p>\n

I have seen paper strips cut from books inside glass ornaments before, but this is different; the book pages are punched into snowflake shapes:<\/p>\n

\"book<\/a><\/p>\n

I would have never thought rolls of yarn and rope would look so great in an ornament:<\/p>\n

\"yarn<\/a><\/p>\n

How about filling an ornament with jingle bells? So festive.<\/p>\n

\"jingle<\/a><\/p>\n

I also found a few ideas for great wedding keepsakes. This one is filled with dried petals from a bridal bouquet:<\/p>\n

\"wedding<\/a><\/p>\n

And this one is filled with strips cut out from a wedding invitation (This would be a FABULOUS gift idea for the newlyweds!):<\/p>\n

(I found this picture on Pinterest but the link was broken, and unfortunately, I couldn't find where it came from…)<\/p>\n

\"wedding<\/a><\/p>\n

Prepare to be wowed. Peacock feathers inside glass ornaments, and hung in a cluster together. Simply STUNNING.<\/p>\n

\"peacock<\/a><\/p>\n

And here are a couple of ornaments I've come up with in the past:<\/p>\n

Seashells and sand inside an ornament makes a great vacation keepsake:<\/p>\n

\"seashell<\/a><\/p>\n

Fill an ornament with holly berries:<\/p>\n

\"holly<\/a><\/p>\n

Or if you're a Barbie fanatic like me, fill an ornament with Barbie shoes!<\/p>\n

\"barbie<\/a><\/p>\n

Filled with popcorn:<\/p>\n

\"clear<\/a><\/p>\n

Or, coat the inside of the ornaments with glitter:<\/p>\n

\"glitter<\/a><\/p>\n
