Hello again! It's Lorrie here and this week on the Thermoweb Blog we've been featuring
Tips and Tricks using the Thermoweb Zots. As soon as I heard the theme
for the week, I knew I wanted to use glitter and Zots. I debated on
whether to make a card using the zots and blue glitter to make
raindrops, or perhaps zots and glitter on a picture frame? There are
endless possibilities. Finally I decided to try candle holders.
I'll
be honest. Originally I thought I'd try to put the Zots right on the
candles, and while it can be done, it's a bit tricky because of the
waxiness of the candle to keep them in perfect circles. Adding the Zots
to the glass candle holders was a cinch.
Here
is everything you need. I found the candles and candle holders at the
Dollar Tree. Thermoweb Zots, Thermoweb Super Tape and Glitter! Super
easy. Oh.... and if you have a significant other in your house like
mine who isn't exactly as big of a glitter fan as I am, you may want
something to protect your kitchen counter (and new kitchen rug)... just
sayin'....keep the peace :)
Simply
create your design by adding the Thermoweb Zots to the glass in the
desired pattern. I used Medium Zots here, but the small would be super
cute as well.
I also created a striped pattern using the Thermoweb Super Tape.
Next,
simply add glitter. It helps if you press the glitter into the Zot or
Super Tape with your finger before pouring off the excess. I also found
having a dry paint brush to brush away the excess glitter to be
helpful.
This is a close up of the ZOT candle holder. I love, love, love Gold Glitter. It's so trendy right now.
Think outside the box and go "ZOT" something. The world needs more Zots and Glitter!
