Materials You'll Need:

Technique 1: Sprinkling Glitter

This technique involves sprinkling glitter directly onto the felt surface. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Apply a thin layer of clear fabric glue to the desired area of your felt.
  2. Place your felt over a tray or container to catch the excess glitter.
  3. Sprinkle glitter generously over the glued area, ensuring full coverage.
  4. Gently tap off the excess glitter into the tray.

If you prefer a more controlled application, glitter paint can be a great option. Follow these steps:

  1. Select a glitter paint color that complements your felt.
  2. Using a paintbrush, apply the glitter paint directly to the felt surface.
  3. Evenly spread the paint over the desired area, ensuring consistent glitter distribution.
  4. Allow the paint to dry completely before touching or moving your felt.

Technique 3: Glitter Fabric Sprays

Another convenient option is using glitter fabric sprays. Here's how you can use them:

  1. Protect your work surface with a plastic sheet or newspaper.
  2. Hold the glitter fabric spray bottle approximately 6-8 inches away from the felt.
  3. Evenly spray the glitter fabric spray over the felt surface, maintaining a consistent distance.
  4. Allow the spray to dry completely according to the manufacturer's instructions.
