JOY German Glass Glitter Garland



I told y'all that my German glass glitter came in the mail the other day, and I was able to finish one project with it (I don't know if any of you have ever tried to get anything done with kiddos running around, but a lot of times NOTHING gets done at all!), and have a couple more in the works.

Remember that I said that I bought the clear glitter since the silver was so much more expensive? Instead of using silver glitter, I spray painted my chipboard letters silver and then used the clear glitter on top of that. It doesn't have the EXACT same look, but beggars can't be choosers, right? And for my purposes, it worked out ok.

One of my favorite things about the second picture is that you can see the red dot from my son's laser pointer on the "Y." I had no idea he had it with him, and I liked that picture best, so it gets posted, red dot and all. ;)
