In one of my favorite home decor stores near my parent's house, I saw these glittered trophies and thought they were so neat. I found a few trophies at a garage sale a couple of weekends ago and thought I would try to glitter them up. They started like this.
I gave them a coat of white spray paint and then painted them with mod podge and sprinkled glitter all over. Here's the result. I think these would be cute displayed on a shelf in a girl's room....What do you think?
I don't know if you can really see the glitter. I tried so many different ways to take the picture so that the glitter would show up. This is the best one I was able to capture.
Have a great day and if you're reading...THANK YOU!
