How to Make a Glitter Letter – Video Tutorial

glitter monogram tutorial-1 copyI’m irrationally frightened of cameras. Probably why I always the one on the other side of the lens. But Angie Holden from Country Chic Cottage and Carolina from 30 Minute Crafts have convinced me that you guys LOVE seeing video tutorials on how to make stuff. I’d love it it you leave me a comment to tell me that you really like this tutorial delivery system–or that you prefer the picture by picture method.

As part of Crafty Hangouts this month–all about crafts you can make for under $10, I made a video sponsored by (a really awesome craft supply spot online) showing how to make a fun glitter letter or monogram party prop. Or a prop you could put on your shelf. Honestly, with the glam little glittery letters, I did both! And in the video below, I show you how–in real time!

Thought this was kind of fun, so plan to do lots more of these. Please do follow me on my YouTube channel!!
