Instructions

Start by taking your tooth picks and spray painting them silver. While they are still wet roll them in the glitter, you can add extra glitter to the picks later too.

Allow the picks to dry and then glue them onto the back of 1 of your gems. Use a good dollop of hot glue or craft glue to make sure the picks adhere well. Place the picks in a circle layout and once secure glue the second sequin onto the top.

You can add extra glitter by spreading some glue onto the picks and sprinkling the glitter over the top.

These look great in gold and white for a lovely snowflake effect.
