Glitter was the inspiration for Kalia's first birthday party, so I tried to incorporate it throughout the entire party! Check out more pictures of her party!
I wanted to add her name in "lights" and Kalia loves balloons. And why not replace boring balloon weights with glitter!?
A very simple DIY, but the results are beautiful. I would love to use it around Halloween with a dark black glitter to spell Boo and Christmas time to spell Joy or Peace. I cannot wait to use it around the holidays!
Here is how you can make this simple DIY and spell whatever you like!
Supplies:
- Mod Podge (the sparkle version of course!)
- Glitter
- Balloons (not shown)
Directions:
- Brush Mod Podge onto letters
- Sprinkle glitter on one side
- Let Dry
- Flip sides and repeat!
To Hang:
Using the ribbon from the balloons, tie around your letter. You can also staple gun the ribbon on, but tying led to a more "floaty effect" which is what I wanted.
I hope you enjoy this simple DIY that takes minutes! I will update holiday versions as the season comes!

Where do you get the letters? And are there other shapes you could use? Like animals, for example?
