Reduce, reuse, recycle, right?

We're glittering & spraying everything - cattails, gourds, anyting else that's not nailed down. If it can hold paint, it's being re-used in Sparkly Christmas designs. After accumulating a gazillion cans of glitter & paint from other shops, we're finally finding a use.

Sorry for the sideways pic - no time to play today... unless it's playing with flowers for sale!

Thanks for the idea....got a bunch of stuff that can use a redo instead of back to the warehouse! We went thu all of our "stored" containers, found cases of stuff, redid some of them and they are now selling as 39.99 specials...but forgot to think "paint"! Thanks

Tracy, you are very creative! Too bad I threw out the few fresh cat tails I had left over. I don't know if the skinny faux cat tails I still have would look as good. Do you think the glitter would work on all the wheat I still have?

I love using wheat sprayed gold, plaid ribbon and pine cones in combination. We're also spraying left over thistle and safflower gold and silver to reuse and re purpose.

Can't wait to show this idea to my staff! We cut back some palmetto fans and sprayed them gold, but I didn't think of spraying and glittering other stuff.
 
I LOVE the glittered look. My Mom was saying today that it doesn't feel like Christmas. When I asked her why, Her reply was " Because you ain't coming home from the shop covered in glitter. "
