Hi everyone! I’ve been a bit busy with work and preparing Christmas posts for December!
Soo! As I mentioned in theย Christmas Village post, this year I am going to decorate my Christmas tree with Tiffany blue ornaments. You probably saw that I already got some ornaments in silver, clear and white. But there was a lack of Tiffany blue because they are not that easy to find where I live, so my mother and I decided to paint some old ornaments that we don’t use anymore; recycle!
I’ve been thinking a lot if I should upload this post yet. It might be a bit early for some of you but I just love Christmas so much. I amย decorating theย house already; hey this Sunday is the first advent Sunday! Don’t judge me ๐

Come ho giร anticipato nel Christmas Village post, quest’anno decorerรฒ l’albero del colore Tiffany.ย Forse avete giร visto che ho preso delle decorazioni in argento, trasparenti e bianche. Ma mancava il color Tiffany, non si trovava. Quindi io e mia mamma abbiamo deciso di dipingere delle vecchie decorazioni che non usiamo piรน; riciclo! Ho riflettuto un po’ prima di pubblicare questo post. Per alcuni di voi puรฒ sembrare un po’ troppo presto ma il natale รจ la mia festa preferita. Sto giร addobbando la casa;ย questa domenica รจ la prima domenica di Avvento! Non prendetevela con meย ย ๐ ๐
I wanted to share with you this easy DIY so let’s get started.
Volevo condividere con voi questo semplicissimo lavoretto quindi cominciamo!
What you will need:
- Acrylic paint
- Paint brushes
- Plastic plate
- and of course some old ornaments for the tree
Occorrente:
- Colori acrilici
- Pennelli
- Piatto di plastica
- e ovviamente un po’ di decorazioni vecchie che non usate piรน
1. I had these old ornaments that I’ve used probably 5 years ago but I don’t use them anymore.
I also had 2 acrylic colours that I thought they wouldย work when mixed together. In fact I got a tiffany blue! You can’t really see it well from the pictures, but trust me, it’s Tiffany blue ๐
So when you have the colour you desire, start painting! Remember to cover the small cap with some tape if you don’t want to paint that. Also, if your old ornaments are dark like mine,ย 2 coats are probably better to cover the colour.
1. Queste sono delle decorazioni che non uso piรน da anni.
A disposizione avevo inoltre i soliti due colori acrilici e ho pensato che mescolati assieme avrebbero funzionato. Infatti รจ venuto fuori un blu Tiffany! Non si vede molto bene dalle foto ma credetemi, รจ blu Tiffany ๐
Quando hai il colore che desideri comincia a dipingere! Ricordati di coprire il tappo se non vuoi colorarlo. Se le tue decorazioni vecchie sono scure, come le mie, 2 mani di colori รจ probabilmente l’ideale per non ottenere un colore piรน scuro del dovuto.
2. Hang the ornaments on a drying rackย to let them dry. I found this was a genius idea haha
2. Appendi le decorazioni su uno stendibiancheria man mano che hai finito di dipingerle. Idea geniale lo stendibiancheria haha
3. I also painted a bird house and a seaย star since I still had some paint. Let them dry and you’re done! Now you can add some glitter or ribbonย to decorate them
3. Lasciale asciugare e poi potrai decorarle come ti pare. Ad esempio con un po’ di glitter o nastro colorato.ย
I couldn’t wait to put up the Christmas tree so here are some pics with all the ornaments!
Ecco alcune foto del mio albero di Natale con le decorazioni!
I hope you enjoyed this Christmassy post!
Spero che vi sia piaciuto questo post natalizio!
31 days until Christmas!!!
