Masking Tape Art Christmas Ornaments

Kids enjoy the most when they are allowed to be freely creative (i.e. mess around without worries).  Won't you agree?

A few months ago, we made this abstract art on canvas A Beautiful Mess using the masking tape technique (also called as tape resist art). The best thing about this technique is that it allows little ones to play freely with colors and in turn amaze you with their creativity.

So this time we decided to make our Christmas craft using the same masking tape art technique. And, they came out beautifully!

Lo and behold, here are our beautiful Christmas baubles.
