- 5 pieces Paintbrushes (various sizes)
- 1 cup A small cup for mixing colors

Instructions
Preparation
- Start with clean and dry ornaments. Remove any caps or hanging hooks.
Creating the Base Layer
- Pour a small amount of black acrylic paint into the ornament. Swirl it around to cover the inside surface.
- Allow it to dry completely, giving a starry night background.
Adding Colors
- Using varied-sized brushes, add swirls of blue, purple, and pink paint inside the ornament.
- Focus on making curvy patterns; let the colors blend slightly for a nebula effect.
Final Touches
- Once the colored paints are dry, add a layer of glow-in-the-dark paint. Apply it sparingly for the best effect.
- For extra sparkle, sprinkle glitter inside before sealing the ornament.
- Spray the inside with a sealer to preserve your design. Allow it to dry before reattaching the cap or hook.
Notes
Experiment with different layering techniques; using metallic or neon paints can create more vibrant effects. These ornaments are best suited for indoor use.
