Friday's Fancies // Holiday Sparkle!

{Sources:: Holiday Sparkle}

'Tis the season to SPARKLE! This ensemble would be perfect for a holiday cocktail soiree! Look festive with a bit of gold sequins and bows! Add some statement accessories and gold nails and you will be the bell of the Christmas Ball!

I have a few holiday parties to attend this weekend, but neither of them will be this dressy. I will also be finishing my Christmas shopping! Wish me luck!

I'm linking up with {av} from {long distance loving} for Friday's Fancies!

Happy Friday!

 

12 Days of Christmas Crafts // #8 DIY Glitter Dot Wrapping Paper

Another fun and easy DIY with my new favorite crafting supply...GLITTER!

 

Well, I actually have a love hate relationship with glitter right now...I forgot how it gets everywhere, even when you are trying to be extra careful. But, it's so worth it to bask in the glory of sparkle after completing a DIY craft!

 

This one I saw on Pinterest {here} and thought it would be easy enough for this novice crafter to take a crack at. Plus it goes along with my glitter and gold theme for Christmas this year!

 

Here's what you need...

 

 

 

Here are the steps...

 

 

You can measure out the circles in a pattern formation or just eyeball it. I used the 1 inch sponge brush to make circles with the glue. Then, sprinkle the glitter over the circles and lift up the paper to remove the extra glitter. Let the paper dry for a few hours.

 

The final product...

 

 

What do you think? Looks pretty under the tree, right?!
