Well, I am trying to get the last of my Christmas projects posted. Here is the last of my glitter obsession.
I bought the wooden stand about 4 months ago at Michaels because it was on clearance for $1.99. I didn’t really know what I was going to do with it but I knew it would come in handy one day!
I started off by painting it black.
I then cut out some scrapbook paper (this was from My Mind’s Eye) a little smaller than the stand itself. I glued it on with Quick Grip.
I made the glitter letters last week when I was doing the other glitter projects. The letters are wooden and I just used spray adhesive to adhere the glitter (it definitely created a lovely mess!)
I adhered a ribbon with double sided tape and added the joy letters (using the Quick Grip again) and some American Craft stickers for the “to the world”.
I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and can find some quiet time to spend with your family amidst all of this holiday chaos!!
