Beads and Copper Star

If you don’t like the rustic look, you can make it look more glittery. For the second ornament, I drilled two more holes at the bottom and used some copper wire to add some green glass beads to the bottom and top of the star. I also polished the star a little and then just added a little red bow. It looks a lot fancier than the first one I made.

This was a pretty quick ornament that has a lot of possibilities. You can glue or solder a pin back to it and make it into a piece of jewelry. You could also decorate a package with it and then it can be hung on the Christmas tree later.
