General Instructions:
Clean ornaments first. Use Windex or Alcohol inside and out, wipe with a paper towel to dry. Be sure the inside is dry if you put paint in it.
1. You can pour paint inside and roll around to cover completely then place open end in a paper cup to drip out excess paint.
2. Or, you can sponge 2 or 3 coats of paint on the outside. After features are painted on, these will need a coat of water based varnish.
3. The caps can be painted if you like to match the ball. The paint on this will not stick as well, so handle carefully. They do look better painted! After the caps are replaced, tie a bow around just below the cap using appropriate color of ribbon.
