Directions to Make Diy Sprinkle Donut Ornament

This project works best on a clean work surface. Whenever I am working with paint and glue, I like to be sure that everything is out of the way and my surface is clean. When I am painting on glass, I like to rest it on a piece of cork to keep it from sliding around. The cork squares are in the office aisle at stores.

Start by painting the donut on the ornament using light brown acrylic paint. Once it is dry, add frosting with the pink paint inside the brown.

Next, add the Gem-Tac glue in a squiggly design that goes all around in the pink painted area of your ornament.

Scatter the polymer clay sprinkles over the glue. It is truly like magic. It literally sticks immediately. Pick up the ornament to shake off any excess sprinkles. You will be SHOCKED at how few fall away. If they are touching the glue anywhere, they stick!

Let the glue dry completely. The recommended dry time is an hour. In 24 hours it will cure completely. Gem-Tac is great for bonding rhinestones, crystals, gems, sequins and so many things to fabric and other surfaces (like the glass). It is great for attaching pearls, plastic, studs and tokens to leather and wood too.

I LOVE the way the Gem-Tac works.

The bottle is perfectly designed for holding while using to get precise amounts of glue where needed.

The decor determines the mood and the feel for your family and all who enter. It is a form of expression. A home that is well decorated can lower anxiety and create a sense of ease and peace. Different rooms can have different vibes determined solely by the decor — from the colors to the furniture to the accent decor. Here are my top five reasons to decorate your home and invest in the process.
