    Hiya. did you try this?
    I did at weekend with my daughter and the effect is lovely. Used old fruit shoot bottles and think they come out a bit fast so am going to start saving my hair dye bottles for this LOL

    My daughter made some lovely effects and when dry it really glimmers

    I think it was Angel who last year put on a craft to make Glimmer Snowmen.

    It was a mixture of flour water and salt and you paint it on black card snowman shapes. The flour mix shimmers when it is dry. We made them and they were excellent. We cut out eyes, a carrot nose in orange paper, and a hat and scarf which the children coloured the way they wanted. We then collected some little twigs which we taped on for the arms.

    We did it, it dried very sparkly, it was really lovely. We made paper plate pictures, they looked amazing.

    Thank you so much for this!
