Glitter Bones

 I found a quick and easy glitter project on an awesome DIY Blog called Glitter N Glue. 

I  just love a good Glitter project, don't you?.

Tutorial

1. Shirt

2.Glitter ( I used Martha Stewart Fine glitter in Brownstone and Fire Opal.)

3. Fabric Glue

4.Scissors

5.Skull Print out, Below

6.Cutting Board 

7. Exacto Knife

8. Duck tape or any kind to hold down you image

9. Wax paper

First you print out your picture, then place it on your cutting board tape that down. 

Then place a piece of wax paper over the top and tape that down.

Using your Exacto knife, cut it out
Wash and dry your Shirt.

I placed a board in between my shirt, so glue would not leak through.

I taped the Wax paper to my shirt.

I added the glue 

 Using a brush I smoothed the glue out, 

Making sure to work  INWARD so the glue does not go under the edges.

 Sprinkle the glitter on the glue 

then slowly peel off your wax paper.

Repeat.
I had a great Question.
Susie asked."Do you have to seal the Glitter on your shirt, and what do you use?"
I am trying two ways to seal the glitter on a  shirt. 
I will update tomorrow, Wednesday
October 26 at 8:00pm my results.
I searched the internet all over for answers to this question and came up with nothing concrete,
Sooooo, I am researching it myself.
Check back tomorrow for the update.

Update October 26,2011.
Still researching, nothing has worked the way I want it to.
I have called for reinforcements. Hopefully I will know soon.
I did find this glue HERE

but I have not used it yet.
I will pick some up tomorrow.

For the Rib Cadge I did the exact same thing.

The Rib cage instructions are HERE

All that is left is to do is to cut off the collar ~if you want  that loose off the shoulder look~

or leave it alone for a T- shirt look.

I think I could wear these  shirts even after Halloween.

Have fun!!

Lots of <3
