D.I.Y Hair clip holder



You'll need
- Glitter
- MDF letter
- Ribbon
- Picture hook

I used PVA glue on mine but you can use another kind of glue, I covered my letters in glue and sprinkled the glitter over.
You'll find that the glitter will stick great in some places and really gappy in others
but of course when you add more glue you will pull some off while you do it
so it takes some patience getting it together nicely.

I need to order my glue gun before I can attach my ribbons I wasn't doing these until I had everything but my ribbon arrived this morning and I just couldn't help but get stuck in tonight :)
Each of my items cost me next to nothing from ebay.
God I love ebay!!!

D.I.Y Magic santa key




You'll need
- MDF key shape
- PVA glue
- Glitter
- Confetti snow


The beard to santa isn't attached so that needed to be glued on
 (I probably should have decorated that before gluing it on)
I guess it's pretty obvious but anyway here we go
Use a brush to put on a layer of PVA glue all over the part you want to add glitter/confetti snow to,
then add some glitter and wait for it to dry :)
