SUPPLIES NEEDED:
Small Vials of Glitter (Color and Shape of your choice)
Disposable Gloves and Work surface
Step 1: Mix the Resin
Begin by mixing up about a teaspoon of jewelry resin according to the package directions. Be sure to use the two phase mixing process as outlined. After mixing for the full time, dump the glitter into the resin and stir in.
Step 2: Add Glitter
Stir in the glitter so that it feels like there is very little resin and lots of glitter. This is the best way to work with glitter, because it won’t get everywhere.
Step 3: Resin on Clips
Next use a disposable stirring stick to drip small amounts of resin on the top of the alligator clip. The resin is amazing and self-levels, but use the stick to spread the glittery resin around the surface.
Step 4: Let it Dry
Then set the clip on a stack of stirring sticks so that the surface of the hair clip is level with the table.
Repeat the process for all additional clips, and then let them sit overnight for the resin to cure. They look like a party of confetti and sparkle! The gold hair clip is luxurious enough to wear alone, but the colored glitter adds an especially fun finish.
That’s it! These hair clips are ready to wear or give as a gift…even clipped on the top of a gift like a bow! Don’t forget to Like, Pin and Share!
