    These are really cute. My Gramma and Grampa use to make these for their place and for their church well over 50+ years ago with wire hangers, so this isn't new. I remember being really little and she and my siblings and all of my cousins would help our Gramma makes these. Her Grandmother taught her how to make these because they were poor and this is how they decourated their home. They also made Angels and Crosses out of the wire hangers.

    HI Elaine ! These are simply gorgeous ! Someone else commented earlier about the 1st layer even being beautiful-Almost Victorian looking. I do agree.

      Cheaper to use glitter, tons of, and mix it with glue, then coat it on in one go. Yes you can buy glitter glue but they tend to be expensive for the size and have minimal amounts of glitter. 😊

Do you think i made up this idea from out of nowhere...? or from time and time doing it? I love glittery things, but do not like glitter flying off over everything else, so YES, i have absolutely done this many many times, and apart from a bit of glue on the fingers holding the item still, I'm bewildered to know what other mess there is...? Are you not able to paint on thin layers spreading it out so it doesn't drip everywhere! Are you using a wall roller instead of a small paintbrush? When simply wet gluing items together are you also drowning in mess? What's the difference to whether some glitter has been sprinkled into it or not? Seriously, if you're making that much mess with a bit of glitter glue and a brush, maybe you should avoid crafting and buy store bought items!
