I saw this on Pinterest: Glitter Barrettes

I am such a sucker for Pinterest! 

What crafty lover wouldn't be!

 It's the best place to go to get inspiration and brilliant ideas.

Although I have come to find out the hard way,

that just because it on Pinterest,

doesn't mean it's true!

So why not a fun little segment?

And so...

"I saw this on Pinterest" 

was born.

I will test it and share it with you!

Saving you the time and money of a back fired 

Pinterest project gone wrong.

DIY: Glitter Barrettes

So I saw these first on one of my favorite blogs, For Chic Sake, and later on 

Pinterest and had to try the DIY out ASAP!

Here's what I used:

I had some funky barrettes just taking up space. 

I never used them because I could never really match them with anything, 

and always ended up feeling a bit childish wearing them.

So why not upcycle them.

Step 1:

 

Paint each barrette with a thick layer of Mod Podge.

Step 2:

Sprinkle a generous of glitter over the 

wet Mod Podge.

Let dry completely

Step 4:

Shake off excess glitter 

and dab on a second think layer of Mod Podge.

Once they are completely dry 

slip them onto a cute piece of card stock and give as a gift,

or just keep for yourself.
