Glitter House

Image
I'm obsessed with glitter houses! Especially old vintage ones. I have a nice little collection of them, but I also thought it would be easy to make my own.  My mom ordered a bunch of cardboard houses from Hobby Lobby  online. Sadly, there are Hobby Lobby stores in MN, but they are in the southern part of the state. One day I'll have to make a special trip down there!  You can really do whatever you want with these houses. I painted mine first with acrylic paint and then sprinkled some mica snow flakes on them. I got  2 huge bags of Mica Snow Flakes off of Ebay last year. On the roof I painted glue on and then put a ton of glitter and snow flakes.  I had some vintage glass balls I used on the wreath and trees. But really you can use anything you like! Aqua Glitter House!  Houses from Hobby Lobby. Trees, glitter, tinsel, and ball ornaments from Michaels.
