Poinsettia Pumpkin Seed Ornament

One year, we made poinsettia ornaments out of pumpkin seeds. 

• Clean and dry pumpkin seeds.
• Cut out cardboard circles about 2 inches in diameter, then trace a circle about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and another about 1 inch (I think I used a quarter and a nickel to trace mine) - these are your guides to glue the pumpkin seeds.
• Start on the outer circle and glue the rounded ends all along. Repeat with the next inner circle, and then finally the smallest circle.
• Let dry, then paint red.
• Put a blob of glue in the middle and sprinkle on millet seeds (I think we bought them in the bird feed section). Once it's completely dry, spray it with some craft gloss sealant.
• I used a ribbon for the hangers, and glued a loop of it onto the back and covered it with a circle of felt.
