It's Summer time...so many BBQ parties, garden parties...think about all that stationery display on tables. I particularly love napkins and used to collect them as a young girl. Flowers are my most favorite prints! Do you ever find yourself with too many? Or...what do you do with them after the season is over? Let's put them to good use with my Napkin Glass Globe tutorial!

MATERIALS:

Aleene's® Platinum Bond Glass and Bead™ 
Aleene’s® Original Tacky Glue™

Tulip® Fashion Glitter™ {Multi Ultra Fine Crystal}

Craft Brush

Napkin

Glass Globe

INSTRUCTIONS:

1- Choose your favorite napkin print.

2- Cut out a few images to decorate your glass globe.

TIP: Take a look at your glass globe and find a center point to place your first napkin cutout.

3- Using your craft brush add a fine layer of Aleene's® Platinum Bond Glass and Bead™ on the back of your napkin cutout.
4-  Glue it to the center point of your glass globe.
5-  Let it dry completely. This kind of adhesive will set in about 15 minutes but it is best to let dry overnight.
6- Repeat steps 3, 4, & 5.
7- Using your fine craft brush apply Aleene’s® Original Tacky Glue™ on the lightest areas of the petals to add dimension.
8- Immediately glitter the surface with Tulip® Fashion Glitter™ {Multi Ultra Fine Crystal}.

TIP: Place a sheet of paper underneath to catch excess glitter for later use and place it back into the tube.

9- Let dry completely.


Your new Napkin Glass Globe is ready! They would make great hostess gifts, wedding favors or decorations. Enjoy!
