How To Make A Glitter Fabric Christmas Tree

  • Create a tree template and cut out the desired tree shape from 6 sheets of NEW A4 sticky back glitter fabric. Glitter red, silver or gold would look equally as fabulously festive as green!
  • Place 3 trees glitter side down and lay strong thick wire down the trunk and foot of each tree
  • Lay the other side of the tree on top, glitter side out, creating 3 pairs of glittery trees with the wire sandwiched between the self adhesive glitter fabric
  • Glue all 3 trees together along the centre trunks creating a rocket shape
  • Glue buttons onto the tips of the stems
  • String beads, buttons and sequins onto thin wire to create a tinsel effect and wrap around the tree
  • Finish off with diamanté button tree top and a wire hook should you want to hang the decoration up, or bigger glass beads on the feet of the tree if you want to use the tree as a table centre piece

Top Tip:
"A glue gun was vital to this project.
Make light work of tricky and time consuming applications by simply opting for our handy glue gun. Plus, if you make a mistake, the glue can usually be picked off in one chunk, and you can try again! A professional tool for all novices!"

How To Make A Frozen Inspired Christmas Bauble

A Show Stopping Ornament For Your Tree Or Something Special For The Little Princess in Your Life

Preparation:


  1. Slide a selection of beads and sequins onto silver head pins. Change the embellishment combinations on each pin to create extra interest.
  2. Ensure that you create some smaller bead combinations to fill in the gaps.
  3. Try and keep the tones and colours similar for an overall sophisticated look. I have chosen mainly ice blues and whites with hints of silver from the crystal diamanté and snowflake sequins.

Guide:

  1. For the diamanté centrepiece simply use one half of the diamanté crystal clasp JR04869.
  2. Loop 3mm ribbon around the centre and hide the knot behind the base.
  3. Spot a little bit of glue on the shank back and using a polystyrene ball as the base, sink it into the polystyrene surface of the ball.
  4. Now, simply push the decorated beaded head pins securely into the remaining surface area. For added security, spot a little glue on the bottom bead of each pin.

The Final Show Stopper... Fit For 
Any Snow Queen!



Top Tip: If you wish to create a distinct
pattern, draw the shape on the ball with
a felt tip pen and follow as a guide.
