Who doesn't want to glitter-fy their keys?!
I saw this one on Pinterest quite a while back, and decided it would be an easy nap time craft to try.
The original Pinspiration came from here:
However, I have seen this many places around Pinterest. I have noticed a few different methods, so I decided to try out two of them to see which makes the better glitter key!
Method 1: Nail Polish
I decided to try this one first, because if it worked, then this project would be easy!
This method just involves painting your key with glitter nail polish, so I whipped out the old key from my long-dead Hyundai, and gave it a go!
annnnnnd fail.
Perhaps it was the nail polish I chose, but this just came out looking awful, even with multiple coats. Also, unless I coat this with clear spray paint, it will remain tacky, sticking to everything.
Method 2: Mod Podge and Glitter
This method turned out fantastic!!
First, I put a thin layer of Mod Podge onto the key, then liberally applied my Martha Stewart glitter, tapping off the extra. I let it dry, then glittered up the other side.
Once it was dry, it was great! It seems pretty durable, and the glitter is sealed in, so it doesn't come off at all!
