Glittered Roses

I made a Christmas wreath today, this one sits on a cabinet with a candle in the middle, it's not a typical door hanging wreath. I thought I would share how I added glitter to the roses.



For the wreath I used red roses, gypsophila, some rosemary from the garden, some fir from the branches which had to be cut from our tree, holly, gold sprayed cones, and some artificial red berries.



I diluted some pva glue with water, and used a brush to place the glue onto the roses and added touches to parts of the greenery and berries. I shook some ultra fine glitter over the glue, when dry the glue becomes transparent.


I hope you have fun adding some sparkling glitter to your floral arrangements this Christmas.

Thank you so much for visiting.
