Marbled Paper Mache Ring Dishes

You have seen marbled ring dishes a million times on Pinterest. You know the ones with air dry clay and gold trim on the edges. Ya, I love them too. I wanted to make my own version, not using air dry clay, but using paper-mache. Same concept, same steps, different medium and all new funky look.

Happy Hump Day all you crafty crafters! It's Jade here showing you how make glittery, swirly ornaments. I know Christmas is almost here but I have an idea for you that you might just love.

They will think of you as they put every single ornament on their tree. Plus its something they can use year after year! Whattya say?!
