    Here are some FAQ's... I hope this helps!
    🌟What supplies do I need to create these paint pour ornaments?
    Answer: You’ll need clear glass or plastic ornaments, acrylic paint, a pouring medium, mixing cups, stir sticks, gloves, a drying rack, and optional embellishments like glitter or ribbon.
    🌟How do I mix the paint for the best pouring consistency?
    Answer: Mix acrylic paint with a pouring medium in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio (depending on your paint and medium). The consistency should be smooth and flow easily without being too runny.
    🌟Can I use leftover paint from other projects for this technique?
    Answer: Yes, as long as the paint is mixed with a pouring medium to the correct consistency. Repurposing paint can add interesting color combinations!
    🌟How do I avoid paint pooling at the bottom of the ornaments?
    Answer: Rotate the ornament as you pour and let the excess paint drip off onto a protected surface. Use a drying rack to keep the ornament elevated as it dries.
    🌟Do I need to prime the ornaments before painting?
    Answer: Not usually, but cleaning the surface with rubbing alcohol helps remove oils and ensures better paint adhesion.
    🌟How long does it take for the paint to dry completely?
    Answer: Depending on the paint thickness and environmental conditions, the ornaments will take 24-48 hours to dry thoroughly.
    🌟How do I seal the finished ornaments?
    Answer: Use a clear spray sealant or brush-on varnish to protect the design and add shine. Ensure the paint is fully dry before sealing.
    🌟What are some creative ideas for color combinations?
    Answer: Try festive palettes like red, green, and gold for Christmas, or blue and silver for a winter theme. You can also use metallics or glitter paint for extra sparkle.
    🌟Can I create matching ornaments and canvases with this technique?
    Answer: Absolutely! Use the same paint colors and pouring techniques on a canvas to create a coordinated holiday set.
    🌟How can I use or gift these ornaments during the holidays?
    Answer: Hang them on your tree, use them as gift toppers, or package them in decorative boxes to give as thoughtful handmade gifts.

    I don't like the pure waste of color. You can do that with a little thicker and significantly less paint. Even better...

      Thank you for your feedback 🤗 I know there are more ways to make these ornaments, this is how I make them. I also reuse the dried paint in other projects, which is why I left the styrofoam covered in plastic ❤️
