I found this little piggy bank at the dollar spot at Target. Yes, this little guy was cute, small, pink, and only one buck. It was almost perfect, but looked a little plain to me.
So, I added a little sparkle. After all, there isn't anything much that isn't improved with a little glitter, right Kristi and KC?
First, I used my Designer Dries Clear to add the outlines of flowers. I just used the glue with my fine metal tip directly on the ceramic. No sanding required--this glue is THAT good! I did the outlines first. They were freehand and glittered in Microfine Opaque 508 Silver Moon.
I let the glue dry between each step. I filled in with the Mirofine Transparent 825 Muscatel for the darker colored flowers. And thenm 707 Hot Lips for the lighter ones. Why transparent? I thought that it might be nice to let the pink show through and unify the flower colors.
I added the Microfine Opaque greens to the leaves. I used Bavarian Forest 514 and 519 Reed for this part of the project. Then, I inclued some Want2Scrap gem. That was it. Done!
Quite the sparkly piggy. It would be a simple and fun way to spend the day with the future saver in your family. Give it a try! It could make saving fun!
