Peel your tape off to reveal a clean line at the edge of your glitter. You will still be able to see some glue through the glitter, but don’t worry, it will dry clear.
Repeat this process with the next colour of glitter. The trickiest part of this whole project is making sure you get glitter right to the edge of the previous colour without wiping any away with your brush.
To finish up, repeat the process with the third colour, and then let it dry.
I switched it up with my third candle holder – before applying tape to break off the sections, I stuck on a maple leaf vinyl decal that I made with my Silhouette. I followed the exact same process, and when I was done applying the glitter, I used a vinyl hook to peel the leaf off. It left this cute little peek a boo leaf shape.
I did more glittering though – make sure you stop back on Wednesday to see how I created super quick and easy glittered acorns.

These are adorable. I have so much stinking glitter that it’s not even funny. I think I may have to have a glitter party soon.

These are seriously cute! I love glitter too, it’s like concealer and coffee are for mom’s, but for everything we can decorate 🙂
