Glitzy Paper Wreath with Cherie

There is something fun about playing with paper, glue and glitter.

Today my project involves all three.

I wanted to make a wreath for inside my house, as a wall statement. Which I plan on hanging in my craft room.

Products Used:
Designer Dries Clear Adhesive
Art Glitter #27 Navy Ultrafine Opaque Glitter
Art Glitter #60 Sahara Ultrafine Opaque Glitter
Ultrafine Metal Tip
Tombow Stamp Runner Dot Adhesive
Metal Hoop
Paper, Any kind you want! I used Authentique Genuine Collection
Paintbrush
Twine


I started by taking a gold ring that I purchased at a local craft store. When I was there I found perfect paper for the project as well!

I ending up cutting 6"x6" paper into 6" by 1/2" strips. I picked a few different patterned paper and cut them until I had a good pile on the table. You can always cut more.

I took a strip of paper and wrapped one end of it around the metal hoop. Using the Tombow Stamp Runner Dot Adhesive, I then stamped a dot a glue on the end of the strip and adhered it to itself.

I did this all the way around the hoop until there was no room to add another.

I added a little twine loop to what I would consider the top, and then added more strips. This time I put them on the back of the wreath. I continued to use the Tombow Stamp Runner Dot Adhesive and put a dot of adhesive at the top of each strip and placed it on the edge of the ring between two of the already attached strips.

I completed the circle so it looked nice and full.

Next I used Designer Dries Clear Adhesive and brushed the glue onto each end. I started by using the Navy glitter on all the longer pieces, and the Sahara glitter on the shorter pieces.

I wanted to add some more glitz to it, so I drizzled Designer Dries Clear Adhesive up and down the strips of paper and around the ring using the Art Glitter Ultrafine Metal Tip, then sprinkled on the glitter!

 A beautiful glitzy paper wreath!

I hope you enjoyed my project today. You could also do this with different holiday papers to celebrate each season or special occasions!

Globecraft Memories and Art Glitter

Today's project is in collaboration with Globecraft Memories & Piccolo. I was able to make a beautiful necklace using Art Glitter and Globecraft products!

Products Used:

Art Glitter
- Designer Dries Clear Adhesive
- #525 Brocade Microfine Opaque Glitter
- #335 Sun Ray Chunky Opaque Hologram Glitter
- #79 Black Ultrafine Opaque Glitter

Globecraft Memories & Piccolo
- Piccolo Flower Drop Charm Set (F012)
- Glastique Gloss Finishing Glaze
- Cool-Set Enamel Gel in Cobalt Turquoise
- Vintage Gold Bail for Attaching Charm to Necklace
- Black Real Silk Cord Necklace with Lobster Claw Clasp

I started with the Drop Charm Set and used one of the smaller charms. I then used the Cool-Set Enamel Gel on the flower petals and let completely dry.

Then I used Designer Dries Clear Adhesive and applied it the swirls. Then applied Black Art Glitter.

 Next was to make the center of the flowers. I placed small dots of Designer Dries Clear Adhesive in the center of each flower. I used the Chunky Opaque Hologram Glitter and covered the dots and shook it off. I LOVE this chunky hologram glitter!

 

 Last on the glitter part, I used Microfine Opaque Glitter for the border. I brushed Designer Dries Clear Adhesive onto the border and covered it with the glitter, shook it off and brushed the access off the rest of the charm. I love how all the different types of glitter look together.

I let it all dry then added Glastique Gloss over the entire charm.

I let it dry, then flipped it over and coated the rest of the charm with Cool-Dry Enamel. 

I added the bail and necklace cord to the charm and put it on!

This was such a fun project. I have always wanted to make jewelry, but had no idea where to start. Globecraft Memories made it super easy to make my own pieces, and even better that I could add Art Glitter to the piece to make it truly one of a kind!

Want 2 Scrap Sleek Strips Rhinestones – Silver

I started by tracing the clothespin around the paper and cut strips to fit on it. I glued them on using Designer Dries Clear, and let them dry. I then used the Sleek Strip Rhinestones and cut them down to seven stones, and made two strips on each side of the clothespin.

I finished it by adding glitter to all the exposed wood left that I didn’t cover with paper. Super simple, and a super fun way to dress up a desk!
