Guide To Make DIY Acrylic Christmas Ornaments In 9 Step! — Acrylic Christmas Ornaments

Materials needed to complete this decorative item:

Clear acrylic ornament disks with a diameter of 4 inches. In this tutorial, I use 4 acrylic disks, but you can prepare the quantity according to your needs (for example, if you have 4 children, prepare at least 4 disks).
Permanent vinyl paint. Although it’s a bit more expensive, it ensures the durability of your creation (trust me, I’ve used regular paint before and it peeled off).
Cricut machine.
Weeding tools.
Glittery thread (or if you prefer a minimalist approach, acrylic paint is sufficient).
Mod Podge Spray (I prefer this type because it doesn’t cause paint runs or streaks).
Ribbon, twine, bows, or any type of string you like for hanging the ornament.
And most importantly, the crucial element is the SVG image file. You can find a variety of SVG images at SVG Christmas. There are countless Christmas-themed SVG images for you to choose from and download. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed with the selection available there.

Now let’s do the ornament together

Step 1:

Peel off the protective film from both sides of the acrylic disk and spray Mod Podge spray on their surfaces. Note that spraying from a distance of 8-10 inches ensures an even and beautiful layer. It is strictly prohibited to submerge the acrylic disk in Mod Podge.

Step 2:

For decorations on a stiff board, sprinkle a generous amount of glittery thread onto the surface of the decoration. Shake off the excess glitter into a container after it dries (usually 20-30 minutes).

Step 3:

Spray Mod Podge on the surface of the glitter to prevent peeling.

Step 4:

While your DIY glittery decoration is drying, upload the decorative SVG designs into Cricut Design Space. Scale them to fit the size of your decoration. If you have a 4-inch ornament, scale it to 3.5 inches.

Step 5:

Load your vinyl onto the Cricut mat, or if you’re using Smart Vinyl, skip this step. Then, cut out the designs.

Step 6:

Weed out the excess parts of the quotes you prepared earlier using weeding tools.

Step 7:

Burnish (rub) the design onto the transfer tape and peel the liner away from the tape.

Step 8:

Place the design in the center of the round decorative disk and rub it with your Cricut scraping tool. Ensure to place a non-glittery vinyl sheet on the surface after removing the film.

Step 9:

Remove the transfer tape and ribbon to complete your decorative item!
