Tools:
Scissors, Newsprint to protect your work surface
Instructions:

2.. Peel one side of the paper backing off design and dip into glitter or seed beads. Prepare several shapes repeating steps above.
3.. Peel remaining paper backing off of sparkling design and adhere to glass ornaments in random patterns.

RE: Refresh Old Ornaments
Here are some ways that I refresh old ornaments... I use decorative trim (bought on clearance from the previous Christmas) I paint them and also use permanent markers to draw different disigns and write sayings on them.. I have given lots of these away as gifts... everyone loves them.. hope this will inspire someone... thanks
