Stumped on a project, application or product? Send me a note with your crafty crisis. I'll do my best to come to the rescue! AND - if you are a clever crafter and can offer a suggestion, please post a comment :-) Friday, September 03, 2004Glitter on Walls
I have a very dark bedroom. I am having white paneling put up in it. Do you think or know if the spray glitter (not a lot) on the walls will stay there? What I mean, in time, will the glitter fall off? Do you have any suggestions? Thanks, Georgie
Hey Georgie! That sounds like such a great idea, I may have to try it myself some day! I don't think I would go with the craft store spray-on kind. It is very running and will probably leave streaks on your lovely white paneling. Can you say cheesy looking? don't go there. You could try spraying it from a distance but I don't think the effect will last too long. And it stinks really bad. I would go with a roll on kind like this: 
I'm not sure how this will work on white paneling, but this is my favorite sparkle product for walls: 
It's made by the gorgeous Annie Sloan from Oxford, England. Here is some info from her about her exclusive glitter paint: "A varnish like paint which spreads a galaxy of tiny glittering stars. Use as a glaze to enliven dull, difficult areas. It lends a sense of glamour, flirtation or fun. - Use it in the dining room for a deep, rich effect - Use it in a child's room to create a feeling of wonder - Use it in a bathroom, it can reflect the glitter of water. For the strongest glittery result use it over a strong colour: Dragonfly Green over Cairo Green; Electric Blue over Iris Blue; Fireworks Red over Plum, Cranberry or Pacific Blue." I want some! $40. per litre, or $6.25 per 100 ml. - CC ********** http://www.CraftyChica.com
