, by . 2 Comments

This Christmas tutorial by Create and Craft with Katie shows you how to make giant oversized Christmas bells using Kitchen mixing bowls that have been glued together and spray painted with galvanized spray paint. These large Christmas holiday bells are perfect for decorating large spaces. You can also paint them withouth the black bell hole to create oversized baubles for your outdoor decor. How about using clear bowls and a photo inside for an oversized photo bauble. 

Dollar Tree mixing bowls
Silver Spray Paint
Waverly Chalk Paint in White and Elephant
Decoart Extreme Sheen Metallic Paint in Tin
Paint brush and paper towel
E6000 Glue or craft Glue
Cord or Ribbon for hanging
Wood Burning Tool
Ribbon and Greenery for finishing decor

She also made these white bells too, but I have to say I am a fan of the metal ones. The galvanized look is very popular right now with all the farmhouse styling that we are seeing throughout all the big brand design stores like Pottery barn and Bed bath and table.

Another great thing with these bells, is you can separate them and stack them together for storage at the end of the year, did I also mention that these giant Christmas bells are also going to last in all weather outside? Seal them with some sealer if your area is getting lots of rain but otherwise that last on your porch.

 

 

If you have made these bells using a plastic bowl, comment below and tell us where you used them, we would love to share your picture of your extra large Christmas bells with our readers.

A fun idea, is the create these Christmas balls and fill them with a small gift or candy, A nice surprise at the end of Christmas day would be to open these bells and for candy or a special treat to fall out.
