Welcome to my world of all things glitter and created with enchantment. I started this adventure several years ago.........well.....STOP!!!!
Let me rewind......When I was a little girls....I used to play dress-up my grandmother.....Annie. Grandmother Annie used to let me play with all of her jewelry pieces including her old hats and shoes....She had lots, and lots of them. She ignited my imagination of all things created. take this journey with me as today I will start to show you one of our product line the "Fairy Wands"..
Our fairy wands comes in two different sizes; small and large. The small size is great for party favors, gifts, or just for decorations. The large size is great for adult giftware.
Today....I would like to show you how we make our creation.We start with several items pictured; A pair of sissor, glue gun with glue sticks, dowel stick, ribbon 1/4 inch, glitter butterfly ornament, and a flower.
We start with our prep work first..that is the dowl and your chose of 1/4 inch ribbon. We start with a heated glue gun......by taking our ribbon and dowl and combining a dab of hot glue to the wood and then press the tip of the ribbon. Let it sit for a couple of minutes. When the ribbon is firmly in place....start to wrap your ribbon around the dowl until you reach the bottom. Then at this point place a dab of hot glue to bond it together, snip off any extra hanging ribbon.
Now we are ready to go onto our next step.......
We can start with our Glitter butterfly. Start with the out sides.....*For this particular butterfly there is an inner and outer. The inner is when the wings are pointing in....oppose to the outer, where we will start. On the spine of the butterfly is where we will place a short line of hot glue....and proceed with attaching our ribbon dowl at the top to our butterfly firmly. Then let it sit for a couple of minutes. Our next step is to attach our flower to the back of dowl.....(making it bond on the opposite side of the butterfly.
For added enchantment.......add strips of tulle ribbons to top it all off.
