Tis the season to be jolly and make your own homemade glitter and snow!!!
Today's share will be more about process than final results, getting hands on, messy, and joyful. Making your own stuff, rather than running to the craftstore whenever you need to embellish your masterpieces. Sharing pics with you of my super fun adventures making my own stuff, rather than running to the craft store always.

The "glitter" was glued to the soda can tree and the tickets with Scotch quick dry adhesive.
And now for the snow . . .
to make a little snowman with a Cricut Stencil (Joys of the Season Cartridge,Expression2)
How simple was that. Think of all the nice projects you will make with your handmade snow and glitter. The kids will have good times with this too. .
Signing off for now.
Joyful Crafting Always,
Melody :)

ReplyDeleteHi Sara, you are so sweet to leave a little love for a designer. Thank you so much. You are so right, a great way to use those broken ornaments. I had a bag full never having been able to throw them away and now they are getting all wacked. If your hubby break anymore, you can now thank him. :)
