  I had the opportunity to try out Krylon's new Glitter Blast Spray Paint last week. I was SO excited -- a product that combines two of my favorite things: spray paint AND glitter. Wow! But I secretly had my doubts about how this product could work. Wouldn't the glitter clog up the nozzle? Plus, all the glitter paint I have tried in the past ended up getting dulled down when put in a liquid form. I was excited to see how it Krylon's Glitter Blast worked.





I decided to try to make a Fashion Accessory project with this new Glitter Spray Paint. I love a good challenge. So I came up with a glittery brooch that is interchangeable. 

 

It can be worn as a brooch with a pin on the back, but I also made a pass-through on the back so a belt can be looped through and it can be worn on a belt. And this pass-through also makes it work as an embellishment on a headband.




 




Plus, you can pin it on a pillow and it's jewelry for your home. LOL!





And because I couldn't resist glittering everything in site, I sprayed a few Dollar Store Pumpkins to display in my beadboard-backed cabinet. I love them displayed on my cake plates!!



Here's what I did to make these Glittered Interchangeable Brooches:






  1. Spray the Dollar Tree flowers with Krylon's Glitter Blast paint. Let dry. 

  2. Meanwhile, make the fabric flowers. 

  3. Then hot glue fabric flowers and spray painted flowers on to felt. 

  4. Cut around the flowers. 

  5. Then add a rectangular strip, gluing on two, opposite sides -- this creates the pass-through for belts or headbands. 

  6. Hot glue a pin to the back so you can wear it as a brooch.






And, I couldn't stop at one. Here are a few other ones I made...







And I Glitter Blasted some upholstery tacks, a button cover and a head band:







My Sparkly Pumpkins make me smile --















The best part about this product?? The glitter doesn't rub off!!! I put the pumpkins between my legs to tie the ribbon on and there was no glitter left over on my pants. Yay!!!



Be sure to check out Krylon's Glitter Blast Spray Paint. It's like happiness in a can!! I don't know how they made this glitter spray, but it is SUPER shiny. And it comes in these fun colors too!!

I love making Rolled Fabric Flowers  jewelry!


There are so many possibilities! 


You can make all sorts of jewelry with this little flowers, plus add them to home decor items like pillows, placemats, dishtowels and more !

So the other day, while my sister and her family were visiting, we sat down for a little "craft hour" and experimented making different Rolled Flower Gifts.


It was so much fun!!!

In case you haven't tried making these Rolled Flowers -- here's what you do:

maddy cutting out the fabric

1. Cut a 1-inch wide strip of material. We used fat quarters and cut one strip for a small flower, and combined two strips to make a larger flower.





2. Fold the strip in half width-wise and add a dot of hot glue, then immediately roll up the material {keep it folded in half} about 10 rolls. Then secure with another drop of hot glue.

3. Now fold the material in toward the center of the flower and continue rolling the material around the center of the flower. Hot glue a dot every rotation.

4. Continue this way until you run out of material and secure the end of the fabric to the flower.

5. Put hot glue on the back of the flower and attach it to a piece of felt.

6. Once the glue has cooled, cut around the flower on the felt.

7. Now you have a flower you can make into a pin, hairclip, or ring. Combine more than one flower to make a necklace by attaching the flowers to a piece of felt. Put pieces of chain underneath the flowers to secure the chain to the felt and flowers. Then cut around all of the flowers and attach a clasp to the end of the chain and a jump ring to the other end.

And an even easier and faster gift idea is hot gluing embellishments to the ring blanks or hairclip/bookmark forms.


button clips and bookmarks


We also covered some buttons with fabric and hot glued them onto the blanks.


This makes a great gift.


Add the bookmark to a book or bookstore gift card for a fun stocking stuffer!!!

And if you make some Rolled Flower Jewelry, get your friends together for a Girls Craft Night.


 Projects are always more fun with friends!!!
