The girls and I did these last night:
I got clear glass bulbs and cheap-o acryllic paints at JoAnn. I removed the "lids" and we dripped paint into the bulbs, then swirled them around. It takes a surprisingly small amount of paint (as I realized after the fact), and a little bit of patience to let the paint swirl around inside. We left them drying overnight in egg cartons, and these were the final results!

Those are really pretty!
Wow. Those are gorgeous.
We have our own take on the glass bulb idea. You know the wire that's wrapped with gold stars. The pretty stuff, not the tacky stuff. Anyway, we cut pieces of that and stuffed it down inside the clear bulbs. Once they are on a tree with white lights shining behind them, they are really pretty. We'll have to try your idea, though.
They turned out so great!
