Christmas Temporary Tattoo Table DecorationI personally like to wear a festive new Christmas outfit, or I take one from my closet and give it a facelift. I do the same with my decorations. And yes, it’s okay to go overboard, this time of year: gold, glitter, bows, bells, you name it.

In today’s design and decoration world, less if often more, but not in December; in December it can all be more is more. I was looking for something special that could help plunge everything big and small into Christmas mode this month. With the help of a few sheets of temporary tattoos, I was able to provide that Xtra touch. For an extra festive Christmas dinner, you can use these temporary tattoos on dishes, glasses and candles.

Let the children float off in a dream at the Christmas tree by dressing your Christmas baubles with enchanting design, such as fairies and butterflies.

The options for temporary tattoo designs are truly limitless; there is something for everyone.

THINGS YOU’LL NEED:

It’s best to gather these together before you start:

Preparation for Christmas Decorating

Preparation for Christmas Decorating

Scissors, a bowl of water, paper towels or cloth, the items you’re decorating, sheet(s) of temporary tattoos, and a pinch of inspiration and creativity.

TIPS and TRICKS

You apply the tattoos onto the items the same way you’d put them on your body:

1) the surface has to be clean and dry

2) remove the plastic film from the temporary tattoo

3) place the tattoo with the picture facing the item and gently press the temporary tattoo with a cloth or paper towel dipped in water for at least 30 seconds.

4) lift up a corner of the tattoo paper to check if the tattoo is coming off the paper. If it isn’t, moisten the tattoo a bit more.

5) finally, remove the tattoo paper and Abracadabra! The design is now on your Christmas bauble or candle. How to remove the temporary tattoos: You can remove the tattoo with alcohol or any kind of oil.

HELPFUL HINTS

Make sure you keep your unused tattoos dry, because as soon as any water touches them, the glue is activated and they’re ruined.

Black and gold look great on a white or glass background.

For a round surface, such as a Christmas ball, opt for smaller designs, so you can apply them evenly.
