Remove the hanger from the ornament and then, using the funnel, fill the clear ornaments with some candies. Smaller children may require help to hold either the funnel or the ornament. Place the hanger back onto the ornament. Use the glue to attach a small bow. Set aside to dry. It only takes a few minutes to make each candy-filled ornament, and this is the perfect activity for kids to help with. They will love making these fun treats to not only hang on the Christmas tree but also to give as a classroom or neighbor gifts. The holidays are all about the candy, so celebrate that by filling your clear glass ornaments with candy! These would also work great as gifts.

It has the charm of a ship in a bottle but is far more festive: winter greenery contained in a delicate glass ornament. Crafts editor Hannah Milman fills glass-ball ornaments with sprigs of holly, bayberry, and evergreens. Remove the cap from an ornament, and carefully place a small piece of trimmed greenery inside. To prevent condensation from forming, leave the cap off for 24 hours before replacing it. Thread ribbon through the top loop, knot, and hang from the tree.
