Dear Friends,
I've been busy sewing and crafting today. I think these fabrics are so pretty and two of them will become a Valentine apron for me. The third became a fun tablecloth for the family.
Next I began to work on the centerpiece for the table. Before I begin I must say that I was on a program showing my baskets and everyone on the program received a complementary sample of Beacon Glitter-It to try and review from Signature Crafts. I used Beacon's Glitter-It which was originally designed to coat the inside of clear Christmas ornaments and then put glitter in the ornament for a stunning look. I used it to coat a clear glass votive for a candle. Once the inside of the votive was coated with the Glitter-It which is very runny, I sprinkled different colors of glitter into the votive. I will tell you that this does dry fast so you need to be ready and move quickly.
Below is the finished candle votive. Glitter-It dries clear.
Finally my finished tablecloth and centerpiece. The kids love this!
Thank you Signature Crafts for letting me try your product. I think the results ended up being very pretty.
Hi Nancy~ What a beautiful candle holder and those candies there look good too;) Love the valentine's fabrics, they are so pretty and romantic:)
ReplyDeleteOoo! I like the votive holder with glitter. Let us know if the flame effects the glitter or the glue? It's a pretty look!
