Ombre Glitter

I have never really been a glitter girl,
but lately it seems to be pulling me in.

I love the idea of this graduated glitter...


Glitter for Christmas

and it is so simple to do from just two tubes of glitter...



in ...
1 - 100% red glitter
2 - ratio of 3 parts red to 1 part white gold
3 - ratio of 2 parts red to 2 parts white gold
4 - ratio of 1 part red to 3 parts white gold
5 - 100% white gold glitter


I hope you can understand my breakdown of the instructions.




Glitter projects seem to be slipping into all my holiday ideas at the moment...


Glitter for Easter
use on Easter eggs...


glitter Easter Bunny...

Glitter for Halloween...
use on skull and bones...


glitter pumpkins...





hum, maybe I am a glitter girl after all?

DIY COLOURING SPRINKLES

I wanted to save this article for future reference,
so I thought I would share this post with you guy's too...

This weeks obsession is cupcake and cookie decorating,
not I am not great but try, try and try again.

The one thing I can't find is nice coloured sprinkles...

So me and my friend google found this fabulous tutorial



just look at those colours!

and it is so easy...

Here's what you'll need to get started:


* white sprinkles (jimmies) or non-pareils
* powdered food colouring or petal dust / dusting powder
* small plastic bags
* toothpicks
* glass jars for storage



you'll go from these bright white sprinkles...

to this by just adding...

a little powdered food colouring into the zip lock bag and shake.


Check out Such Pretty Things for full tutorial




oh these are so pretty and more dust for stronger colours!!!

BIRTHDAY MEMORIES

I started this last year 
but so wish I had thought of it when Liam was little...


this photo was taken around his 10th birthday...


I uploaded it to picnik and added the things that he loves at the time...

the only thing I would change is I would use a photo with a plain background.






I also made one for "when I grow up I want to be..."


wouldn't they make fab gifts for family and friends?


Have fun with your family!!!
