Glitter Crowns…


Today I want to share a pretty little project I made recently that is small in size…yet brings a large amount of sparkle to your holiday table!

These sparkly Glitter Crowns take just a few items and a few minutes to make!
 
Supplies ~
Several cardboard tubes ~ from paper towels, t.p., wrapping paper, etc.
Gold and Silver Krylon Spraypaint
Mod Podge
Gold and Silver Glitter
 
Start with your cardboard tubes and cut them into 2-3 inch high sections (depending on how tall you want your crowns to be). Then cut the points on each section…you will now have a pile of these…

Next, spray paint your cardboard crowns ~ be sure to spray the inside of each crown too ~ some silver and some gold…

Lightly paint each crown with the Mod Podge and roll in glitter…

These festive little crowns can be used several ways. As shown above, I used some as napkin rings…

And they are equally cute as place card holders…
