FILLABLE ORNAMENTS
There are so many amazing supplies available for crafting these days. Fillable ornaments are all over the place and make crafting so very simple.
The options for ornaments are endless when it comes to fillable ornaments. Kids love helping fill ornaments with small pretty items and hanging them on the tree.
You can generally find these fillable ornaments at most craft stores and even Dollar Tree during the holiday season. You can get plastic or glass. There are lots of different sizes and shapes to keep everyone’s ornaments a little different!
WHAT KIND OF SPRINKLES DO I USE?
There are so many amazing holiday sprinkles these days. It doesn’t matter what holiday you are celebrating, you can find colorful and fun sprinkles.
Sprinkles seem to never go bad and once they are inside this bottle sealed up you won’t need to worry about them.
Here are some of the adorable ones I have seen for Christmas:
- I love the Wilton 6 Cell Sprinkle Containers
because you get 6 different kinds of sprinkles in one container.
- If you are making a large number of these ornaments for gifts try getting these rainbow sprinkles
because they come in a big container and are inexpensive.
- Rainbow Nonpareils
are always a fun choice for these sprinkle ornaments.
- Noel Mix Sprinkles
are so pretty with the red, white, and green and the addition of little white snowflake sprinkles.
- Holly Berry Mix Sprinkles
are lovely and would look great with some holly ribbon.

HOW TO MAKE DIY CANDY SPRINKLE ORNAMENTS
A couple of simple steps and you will have a finished, completed, and adorable ornament to hang on your tree or give as a gift.
STEP ONE: ATTACH SCREW
Start off by taking the cork out of the small glass bottle.
Attach one of the screw eyes to the center of the cork.
STEP TWO: ADD SPRINKLES
Now it is time to add the candy sprinkles to the bottle. I found that using a small funnel made this process easier and less messy!
I think it looks nice to fill the bottle at least halfway with the sprinkles of your choice.
Now put the cork back on the bottle nice and firmly. If the cork doesn’t seem to have a tight seal it might be a good idea to add a little bit of hot glue to the lower portion of the cork so it seals very nicely.
You don’t want the cork to come off while it is hanging on the tree and have all the sprinkles spill everywhere!
STEP THREE: ADD RIBBON
It looks nice to add a small decorative ribbon around the top of the bottle.
You can also add ribbon, twine or string to the eye screw to use as an ornament hanger.
