Step 4- Spread glue all over the container, very evenly. Because you want your glitter to stick evenly.
Step 5- Pick the silver glitter & sprinkle evenly all over the container.Dab the container to get rid of extra glitter. Let it dry overnight.
SAMSUNGAs a glitter rule of thumb, it is best to lay something down under your working space to catch the extra glitter bits that fall around your project. Then when you are done with that color, you can pick up the extra glitter and funnel it back into your container to reuse at a later time.

Procedure for decoration:

Instead of wheat dough you can use Art & Craft’s white M-seal. But I prefer to go for wheat dough which is all time available at home & easy to work with.
Take a small ball of dough & divide it in half. Now roll them into 2 thin ‘snakes’ . You’re gonna twist them into a rope shape…. Like this
SAMSUNG Let the rope dry little bit around half an hour. Colour it with your favorite color & try to unstick your rope otherwise it'll stick on paper. . Here I used sparkling Magenta colour. Add it to the bottom of the holder  using some glue & in the center stick the pearl plastic bead. Allow it to dry completely.




SAMSUNGA very cheap & an Eco- friendly way to make stuff for the home & your office space. If you have a lot of junk stuff lying around, this would be a best way to get rid of it ! Yeah ! I mean in a creative way !
