Hello my magical friends!! Welcome to this weeks craft!! We are creating Magical Fairy Dust Vials!! Let’s fill our vials with glitters, glues, and magic! A charm and note will bring it all together!
Follow along in the video below:
Yay!! Let’s get started!! There are SO MANY kinds of potions you could create, so many colors of glitter, and every kind of charm!
Very first though, we must choose which size vial!
Keep in mind if you’d like this to be a necklace or a stand-alone potion!
Now.. let’s look at the glitters!!!
There are just about every color and shape of loose glitter! From glass beads to sparkly stars to bright pink flakes- the choices are only as large as your imagination!
Stickles glitter glue is also the Perfect potion ingredient! Super sparkly and a bit gooey, these are great for playing your colors exactly where you’d like them. Maybe you want purple drips down the side? What about clear goo with rainbow glitter?!
Combining the stickles and the loose glitter makes for so many options!
Want to pour glitter into your tiny vial? Let’s use a glitter funnel!! Be careful about the chunkier glitter, it might not fit through the funnel!
Stickles glitter glue already has a fine-tip nozzle so there’s no need to use the funnel! Just squeeze your glitter into the vial and taa-daa Magic!
Now we can attach an eyelet and o-rings to add on our charm and label!!
There are SO MANY charms to choose from here at the shop!! Not only do we have an Entire Apothecary of assorted charms by letter and theme we ALSO have last-chance charms with never-to-be-seen-again magical bits!!
You could consider what kind of potion you’re creating, or the recipients favorite things, and find a charm that matches!
We can also write up a little label!!
Is your potion Fairy Dust? Wishing Stars? Ultra Magical Rainbowtastical Glittery Bits??
Whatever it is that you’ve so beautifully created, write it upon a tiny label, punch out a hole, and attach it to your vial!!
Now to seal it all up!! Use a bit of Stickles around the cork and smush it into the vial! Being messy helps the glue stick to the cork and vial and seals it up!
Be careful, it takes a while for your glue to dry!!
Of course you could find your most favorite ribbon and string your vial up to create a necklace!! Or you can let it stand along to have a non-necklace fairy dust vial!!
Whichever way you created today, I am positive that it is perfect for you!!!
Thank you so much for following along and creating something so Magical today!!! We had SO MUCH FUN with this craft, and just can’t wait until next time!!
Happy crafting, my creative friends!!
