Scented Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 great looking sugared pear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtngrl Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Beautiful pear .... love the glitter. I'm sure that must be a type of glitter safe to burn. At what point of the process do you apply the glitter? Do you use any kind of glue or ....?.... to make it stay on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Country Crafter Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Thanks everyone, yes this glitter is safe to use, actually it is cosmetic grade but there is other glitters sold under various companies own names that work. (Most of the craft store, even the super fine is not safe, it will spark and crackle or clog the melt pool as it enters the area of the flame. )We make the candle then apply a light coating of watered down modge podge which is waterbased, very thinly! We then dust with our shakers.Lastly we spend the next few weeks finding glitter everywhere! We use the halographic which sparkles different colours, looks pretty when the light hits it.HTHWendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Country Crafter Posted September 26, 2006 Author Share Posted September 26, 2006 Why thank you Luci, as wedding favours I love the organza bags, they look very elegant in my opinion, although we have been asked to do an order and put them in burlap, lol.
