This project was inspired by this beautiful pin.
We've got some decorative twigs sitting in our upstairs hallway.
I knew that by using them, I wouldn't have to worry about bugs that could be crawling on those ones you get outside. They're really long, though.
So I snapped the tops off and discarded the rest for firewood.
Using my hands, I covered the sticks in Snow-tex. I then took them outside and spray painted them with silver glitter paint. The problem was, however, I forgot how badly the glitter paint stunk. And I don't mean it smelled bad (though it did). Apparently I didn't remember how much a pain this mirror was. I used the entire can of glitter spray on the twigs and you could barely see it. So I poured extra normal silver glitter on top of it. Here's how they turn out.
Here's a close up. I like the difference in the colors and textures with the wood, white, and glitter.
And I stuck them in my blue painted vase!
Stay tuned throughout this week for more late winter decorations!
