New Home Ornament DIY (Housewarming Gift Idea)

Cook Time 10 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 Pair of scissors
  • 2 paint brushes

Ingredients

  • 1 house key
  • gold leaf
  • tacky glue
  • mini wreath
  • pipe cleaner or ribbon for the bow
  • yarn

Instructions

  • Add gold leafing to the house key. You can do this by using a brush to coat the key in glue. Allow to get tacky, then wrap the key in gold leaf.
    Use a second brush to brush away any excess.
  • You may need to go over certain areas of the key again, as gold leaf can be quite flaky.
  • Create a bow from a pipe cleaner or small ribbon.
  • Use yarn to tie the key and bow to the mini wreath, leaving a loop on top to hang from a Christmas tree.
