Today we dive into a huge vat of shiny GLITTER! There is no better time to sprinkle away than in December. This show includes an article on glitter, a rundown on types of glitters, adhesives to use and of course - more sparkly visualizations than Liberace in a rhinestone shop...

Listen up, people. Glitter is more than just tiny glistening flakes that dance under the light. Yes, that is what I like best about it, but glitter is also a type of lifestyle. It’s about seeing beauty and amazement in ordinary objects, people and places. It’s about allowing yourself to view the world with a layer of intensity, brilliance and shine. You don’t have to be into crafting to appreciate that!

I’m not the only one who adores the stuff. Recently I wrote a story for The Arizona Republic about other people who like glitter too. I’ve been a reporter at the paper for many years now and this glitter story brought out the most enthusiastic, optimistic people I’ve ever met! This is the first of daily Crafty Chica December podcasts to help you add a bit of sparkle to your holiday season. I’ll have a new mini-show every day, so check back!
