Craft Christmas Ornaments Paint

What is a good craft I can make with a friend in a low budget?

I don’t have a lot more then around $20, but I just have no idea what to make. I want to make a pretty Christmas craft, and not just making a foam or painted ornament. Please tell me some ideas, for I need a good idea by Saturday. Thanks!

You can purchase a package of shrink plastic (aka Shrinky Dinks) at the craft store for about $5.00. Draw or trace simple pictures on the plastic and color in with colored pencils then punch a hole at the top. Now the fun part….bake in the oven ( the instructions are on the package ) and your design will shrink to about half the size. When done, color the edges ( which are thick now) with a gold or silver paint pen. You can string one onto a ribbon or cord for a necklace or if you make a bunch of small ones, you can make a charm bracelet. They can be attached to a split ring and used as a key ring or lots of small ones can be knotted onto thin,sheer ribbon and used as a unique garland for the tree. They can also be used as gift tags, luggage tags and tags at the end of bookmarks. Once you start making these little charms, you might find even more uses for them. Total cost…5 dollars for the plastic, 5 dollars for the colored pencils and 3 dollars for the gold paint pen. The rest can be used for ribbon, split rings, or stretchy jewelry cord and you will stay under your 20 dollar budget.
