Sparkly Starfish Ornament
Supplies needed:
Crafting starfish (we found a bag for $3 at our local craft store)
White craft glue
Assorted crafting glitter
Choice of ribbon for hanging
Scissors
Glue Gun
Directions:
#1. Begin by prepping your starfish for the glitter. Apply a thin coat of glue to the top of the starfish. You can do this with your finger or a sponge, just by dabbing it on. Make sure your glue is smooth and even.
#2. Next, add a sprinkling of glitter. You can use your choice of color. We used basic silver and just sprinkled it right on. You may wish to set the starfish on paper first to catch any extra sparkles.
#3. Shake the starfish to get rid of extra glitter. Apply another sprinkling if you wish. Set aside and allow the starfish to dry.
#4. Finish the ornament by attaching the ribbon for hanging. We used a thin ribbon that we cut to size, folded over, and secured to the back of the starfish with hot glue. Hot glue is the perfect way to keep the ribbon intact.
Your sparkly starfish ornament is now ready to be displayed. Simply hang it and enjoy!
