I would like to wish all my friends and fellow shop botters a Happy Thanksgiving. For those who have children and Grandchildren, here is a simple gift that you can help them make for their mom and Grandmother.
Go to Hobby Lobby and buy some clear Christmas bulbs and some colored acrylic paint. (two colors work best three is more difficult.) take top off of bulb and squirt some paint on one side then squirt the other color on the other side , allow paint to reach the bottom and slowly rotate the bulb and allow the paint to blend. sit up side down in small plastic cup to allow the paint to run back out. Looks great.
I am helping my nephews do this for their mom and grandmother's this week.
