Pour the glue mixture into the ornament with the funnel. Fill about one third or one half full. Swirl the ornament to coat the inside. Pour the excess back into the bowl.

Remember to cover the top of ornament to prevent spilling. Be carfeul not to break the glass. You may want a wet washcloth to clean the glue off your fingers.
